Fringe: Over There (Part II)

Olivia is in serious trouble, I cannot believe how broken she was after what seemed like less than a day in captivity. Alivia (I know it doesn't have the same je ne sais quoi as "Walternate" but it will suffice) on the other hand managed to make contact with the mirror typewriter in record time.

I am fairly certain that Alivia will not be working for Walternate in the long term. I would have to assume that 10 minutes with her new niece will make Alivia a staunch supporter of our universe. I wonder if we will be spending a significant portion of Fringe season three with Alivia as our main character or if Walter and Peter will figure her out sooner. If their track record with Charlie's doppleganger is any indication it may not be until season 10 when someone notices that something is off with their good friend.

I loved all the little touches that made Peter's home dimension so different than our own. The picture of Walternate and an aged John F. Kennedy being my favorite touch.

I know William Bell has the numbers of stars in the universe multiplied by an overpowered nuclear bomb's worth of energy in his body, and he's crossed between worlds in the past, but Olivia was supposed to crack open the door home, not him. He should have noticed something was up right away when she was not pulling her weight. Maybe he did and then he exploded.

Peter and Olivia had their first kiss. It seems like it may be their last one for a while. I really liked this episode but my enjoyment of it was hampered by the fact that this was the first episode of television I watched since the series finale of "Lost" and nothing compares to that ending. Nothing.
