I remember Walter saying that what happened to September after the other Observers found out that he was helping him was " unfortunate" so I always imagined that they killed or tortured him but what they did to him was the best thing they could have done so I don't get why Walter implied that something terrible had been done to him. Anyone?
Unfortunate in the sense of September no longer being able to move through time, thus necessitating the plan in the first place? But had Walter remembered what happened to him, there would have been no confusion regarding who Donald was in the first place. I don't know.
He said that before Windmark tortured him and losing his memory...So yes maybe he was referring to September not being able to travel time and take Michael to the future.
Oh, did he? I guess I need to rewatch. But I suppose it would make sense then - and for Walter with all his brain tissue to consider the situation unfortunate, while Walter as we typically know him would generally be pleased for September if not for the circumstances.
WALTER: (remembering The Purge) They weren't all bad, you know. One of them even tried to help us. He was called September. What happened to him was... well, unexpected. He told me that, in the year 2609 A.D., they finally ruined the planet. (turns of the holographic device he was studying) They poisoned it -- the air, the water. And when it was fundamentally uninhabitable, then they traveled back through time, and took our planet from us. (resolves) Yes, I can build it.

I agree, i think most of us think of September as human and not as an Observer..
