Turing is investigated as a guarded outsider in 1951, then enters Bletchley in 1939 looking for the puzzle he can solve.
Scenes 13–30
He sees the scale of Enigma, believes a machine can solve it, and grows isolated from colleagues who make little progress.
Scenes 31–50
Churchill’s order gives Turing authority and his half-built machine advances toward sustained work.

Scene 52

54EXT. BLETCHLEY PARK - DAY

Joan and a few OTHER WRENS exit a BUS that’s deposited them in front of the Park’s central mansion.

Looking up at it, she sees Alan walking across the way.

He gives her a small wave, which she returns with a small wave back.
