  Several locally deterministic interpretations of quantum mechanics are
presented and reviewed. The fundamental differences between these
interpretations are made transparent by explicitly showing what information is
carried locally by each physical system in an idealized experimental test of
Bell's theorem. This also shows how each of these models can be locally causal
and deterministic. First, a model is presented which avoids Bell's arguments
through the assumption that space-time inflated from an initial singularity,
which encapsulates the entire past light cone of every event in the universe.
From this assumption, it is shown how quantum mechanics can produce locally
consistent reality by choosing one of many possible futures at the time of the
singularity. Secondly, we review and expand the Parallel Lives interpretation
of Brassard and Raymond-Robichaud, which maintains local causality and
determinism by abandoning the strictest notion of realism. Finally, the two
ideas are combined, resulting in a parallel lives model in which lives branch
apart earlier, under the assumption of a single unified interaction history.
The physical content of weak values within each model is discussed, along with
related philosophical issues concerning free will.
