The pieces of the Fringe season two puzzle are slowly falling into place. Peter finally knows his true origin, but he does not know the circumstances under which he came to this world. The "Director" must be important considering multiple shape shifters were sent cross dimensions to set up his arrival. Smart money is on the director being someone we already know, someone like Walternate perhaps.
I was hoping for more drama to come from Peter's revelation. He seems to be playing out the, "This information is too much for me to handle, therefore I must run away" trope. Fringe has been building up to this reveal for the better part of a season and a half, I guess I was expecting fireballs or a giant Icelandic volcano.
The shape shifter "embryo" was unbelievably disgusting. I cannot believe they attempted to wake that thing up without back up. I seem to remember the shape shifters having super-human strength to go along with their metallic blood. After seeing how they cross over to this dimension, in much the same way a "Terminator" does, the three pronged body transfer box seems to be completely out of sync with the rest of the organism. It is an almost retro device for such an advanced creature.
I know it has been a few month since I checked in with plot line, but I wonder if they ever plan on bringing Charlie back to this series? Or at the very least explaining the completely incongruous episode in which Charlie appeared after the death of both his character and his character's doppleganger.
