This one focused on Peter and I must say that I enjoyed the episode immensely. Oddly, this did not feel like an episode of Fringe. This hour played like a psychological suspense film more than the scifi action show we are usually treated to each week. Even if Peter was not questioning his ability to unwind fact from fiction, I was starting to believe that maybe he was hallucinating a bit.
That all changed with the terrific ending when the Director was revealed to be Walternate! If I had a system where I earned points for every correct prediction I made on the blog I would award myself 20 points for saying I believed the Director was Walternate in my post on "The Man from the Other Side". That would likely bring my all time points total to somewhere around, 20 points. I guess that is why I do not have a system like that.
Sheriff Mathis was a terrific guest star and I would love to see her fully cooperate with the FBI in a future episode. I am guessing Nelson did something to Ferguson which would give her an excuse to show up at some point next season when Peter eventually returns to Boston.
A lot has to happen before the Fringe story slows to the point where Mathis can show up again. Peter has to decide which universe he will fight for, Olivia must find a way to use her special powers, Walternate must confront Walter, and maybe we can get an explanation of what was up with the Charlie episode.
Walternate is the William Bell of the other side. He pushed technology to the limit in service of finding his stolen son. Walternate's wife must have given him enough information to ferret out the truth of what happened that night. That all noted, Walternate is a very dangerous man.
