#tag edit: i was wrong about patience since it seems like wayward sisters happened not long before this episode

first visible time stamp we've gotten since 12x23 (which took place in may 2017). there are three post-its marking disappearances with dates from january 2018. "rock springs, colorado, january 19, 2018" (left side, third from top), "ainsworth, nebraska, january 4, 2018" (top half, furthest to the right), and "dalton, nebraska, january 8 (or 18?), 2018" (below and to the left of ainsworth). these are past abductions and have to have happened prior to this episode. 13x11 aired january 25, 2018, so the episode is taking place around the same time.

according to @shallowseeker the widower arc timeline is about a month, give or take. so how did we get from june to january?
