Fringe: Momentum Deferred

That was an episode of television that you could really sink your teeth into (or your three pronged mandible piercing device). Faux Charlie was outed as a spy, quicker than I thought he would be, and Olivia killed him. We got a brighter glimpse of what Olivia did on the other side and it turned out that she mostly gave Bell a hard time. Additionally, we got a clearer understanding of what the the alternate dimension has in store for our reality, which isn't anything good.

It would seem to me that if two dimensions exist there would have to an infinite amount of possible dimensions. But from the conversation Olivia had with Bell it seems like he believes the only dimensions are the two he's walked in, which seems counterintuitive. Nina Sharp seems to subscribe to the same theory. Her snow globe illustration was powerfully demonstrative of the result of failing to stop two worlds from becoming one. How the second dimension plans on keeping their world from getting smashed needs to be explained at some point soon though.

Did the mercury doppelgangers remind anyone else of the "Terminator" movies?

Did Bell admit to writing the ZFT?

I loved the title of this episode. It is wild that Bell pulled her out of a moving car knowing the consequences of his action. Am I crazy or didn't Olivia travel to Bell's dimensions via an elevator at the end of last season?

Walter has a love interest. That was surprising but also welcome, it would be nice if this new character could help Walter become lucid with a bit more regularity. Pretty cool how she noticed Peter was from another dimension! Too bad she didn't give him more of a hint about it. I'm ready to see that story play out.

Speaking of new characters, I know he only had a scene but I loved the tech guy at Massive Dynamic. Give that dude more to do please. He reminded me of the Andrew from Buffy.
