An F.B.I. agent is forced to work with an institutionalized scientist and his son in order to rationalize a brewing storm of unexplained phenomena.
Fringe follows the casework of the Fringe Division, a Joint Federal Task Force supported primarily by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, which includes Agent Olivia Dunham; Dr. Walter Bishop, the archetypal mad scientist; and Peter Bishop, Walter's estranged son and jack-of-all-trades. They are supported by Phillip Broyles (Lance Reddick), the force's director, and Agent Astrid Farnsworth (Jasika Nicole), who assists Walter in laboratory research. The Fringe Division investigates cases relating to fringe science, ranging from transhumanist experiments gone wrong to the prospect of a destructive technological singularity to a possible collision of two parallel universes. The Fringe Division's work often intersects with advanced biotechnology developed by a company called Massive Dynamic, founded by Walter's former partner, Dr. William Bell (Leonard Nimoy), and run by their common friend, Nina Sharp (Blair Brown). The team is also watched silently by a group of bald, pale men who are called "Observers".

She tells Nina they should meet for breakfast more often.Nina reminds her they met at the same place last week, just like they do every Saturday. Now Nina's worried. Olivia promises to talk to Walter.
A woman comes home to her dark apartment and listens to a message on her machine, asking Jane if she's OK.Meanwhile, a man applies something like perfume to his badly scarred neck.
Jane looks at a picture of her with a man and turns around. The scarred man is standing her apartment. She runs and he grabs her. He starts to choke her and she screams, but suddenly she's not afraid any more. She looks at him like he's her long lost love and kisses him.
But the moment ends and she's afraid again. He wraps her face in plastic wrap, smothering her. He holds her close and gently lays her down. Then he swabs her neck and wrists with a Q-tip and puts it in a jar labeled "Jane Hall Sample".
Olivia meets Walter in the lab. Walter shows her the teddy bear Nanny cam he ordered -- it recorded September the Observer disappearing from the lab. There's a flash on the tape as the man disappears. He ordered equipment to slow down the playback.
Olivia gets called to Jane Hall's apartment. Her skin had a reaction to something on her neck. She's the second similar victim in a month. Jane's husband died under mysterious circumstances, she was returning from his funeral.
Broyles tells her in both cases, DNA from the dead spouses was found on the victim's necks -- but Mr. Hall was only exhumed 15 minutes ago.
Walter sees something surprising on the nanny cam video. Walter calls Peter, who is on his way out of town to keep away from Olivia, per Walter's orders. But Walter tells him to come by. "I think the Observer may have done something to your eye," Walter says.
They watch the video, which shows September approaching Peter. But the other Obervers didn't see it.
Peter was heading to New York to get away from Olivia. Walter admires him trying to do the right thing. He says Peter is a better man then he.Peter remembers the old Greek quote for "be a better man than your father".
Walter examines Peter's eye. There's something in there and it has writing on it. They bust out the overhead projector. The object says 228 ½ Morrow Street. Walter thinks eventually the address would have worked its way into Peter's mind.
The Hallses bodies arrive.
The scared man squeeges (ew) a man-sized tube out and distills whatever is in it down to a small beaker.
Back in the lab, Walter says Hall was drained of all liquid, including his pheromones. That's what burned Jane's neck. Pheromones play a role in love.
Olivia sees Peter's packed things and Walter lets slip he was on his way to NY.
Peter is currently heading to 228 ½. He finds an unlocked spartan studio apartment with Observer clothes in the closet and newspapers from important dates on the walls.
Back in the lab, Olivia tells Walter her own memories are disappearing. She wants Walter's help reversing it.
The scarred man sits in a park watching couples. He offers to take a photo of one couple, telling them they look so in love. He chats them up but stops when he sees they have a son. He finds another couple. (But we don't see them.)
Back in the lab, Walter whips up scents including road kill and makes Astrid take a whiff.
Olivia and Lincoln go through statements from the victim's friends, which say the couples were in solid, loving relationships.Lincoln has a hard time concentrating near Olivia, he finally asks if she's OK. He says he's there for her. He looks at her dreamily.
Walter explains that the perfume the killer is making has a rancid note, including a rare one made by only five manufacturers.
In the Observer's partment, Peter hears a beeping and finds a secret compartment with a briefcase full of Observer gear. One machine seems to be a kind of homing beacon.
Astrid calls Olivia, sending them to Empire World Fragrance, who fired Anson Carr a few months ago for theft. He's the scarred man. He stole the ingredient.
Cut to a man screaming to get out of a heat chamber where he's sweating profusesly. Anson turns up the machine, which is collecting the man's draining fluids.
Anson turns on a love song and waits, concocting man perfume. He opens a box and takes out a worn photo of a woman. He cries over it.
FBI teams tear up to a warehouse and bust in.They find Anson's lab. The equipment is still warm. The man is dehydrated toast. The victim's wallet IDs him as Andrew Sutter and he lives in Milton.
Peter takes the Observer's briefcase and homing beacon to Foxboro and follows the signal through the woods until the beeps get stronger. The ground shakes beneath him and a metal pod rises up out of the ground.
At a house in Milton, a woman comes home with groceries. She hears a noise. Olivia is at the door. She explains what's going on and they set up to wait for Anson.
As they wait, Mrs. Sutter explains they've been married 15 years. They were best friends in college, he was always helping her get over a broken heart. But as she talks about the difference between loving someone and being in love with them, it's clear their marriage wasn't completely happy. Lincoln listens.
Anson waits outside a house, dabbing himself with Andrew juice. Olivia and Lincoln wonder what's taking Anson so long. Olivia asks Mrs. Sutter if maybe her husband was having an affair. He was.
Cut to another woman alone in her house at night. She notices a door open and locks it, but when she turns around, Anson is inside. She runs, he catches her and tackles her. She stops resisting and looks deep into his eyes and caresses his face, kissing him.
But then it wears off. He covers her mouth as she screams and he starts choking her.But then we hear Olivia's voice telling him to let her go.
Anson stops and raises his hands.
Olivia asks him if he knows how much pain he caused. He says we're not meant to be alone and every human being has a right to know love. With the right chemical balance he could have given the world, "what you have," he tells Olivia.
He can smell that she's in love.
Olivia drops by Nina Sharp's apartment. She tells Nina about what Mrs. Sutter said about letting go of the possibility of love, which reminded Olivia of herself. She didn't like it, so she's decided to let things run their course.
She's ready to give up her own memories. Walter doesn't know how long it'll take. Olivia asks Nina to try to build something with her again if she doesn't remember their relationship.
Peter runs tests on the Observer's two foot tall metal egg pod. Suddenly, it lights up, casting a beam of light up. Peter runs upstairs and sees the Observer September standing there. He thanks Peter. The other Observers hid the universe from him, locking him out. What he lead Peter to is a beacon, so September could find his way back.
"So I helped you? And I need you to help me now," Peter says. He tells September about trying to get home and asks for his help.
"You have been home all along," September says.
Peter doesn't understand, he was erased.
There is no scientific explanation, but September believes Peter couldn't be fully erased because the people who care about him would not let him go and he wouldn't let them go.
"I believe you call it love," September says.
Peter asks about Olivia."She is your Olivia," September says.
The house begins to shake. September disappears, so does his beacon.
Olivia comes home. Peter is waiting for her. She can tell by the look in his eyes that he wants to be with her. They run to each other, the music swells. They kiss. Yay!

He locks himself in the bathroom and tells them not to let him out. There are guttural screams from inside. In the bathroom he twitches a few times. We know what's coming -- he's about to turn into a giant beast and bust down the door.
Except that when the air marshal knocks and tells him to come out, he calmly opens the door, unchanged.
On the ground, he talks to TSA, chalking it up to a panic attack.
They go through his checked luggage and he doubles over with another bloody nose. In his suitcase they find a kit with needles and tiny vials.
In the bathroom, the man twitches and checks his eyes. This time they're turning green. The TSA agents go to call the cops, and the man busts out as a giant spiny beast. Return of the werecupines!
Olivia talks to a psychologist, resenting that she's trying to convince an FBI shrink that she's fit for duty instead of being out there trying to catch David Robert Jones.
The shrink asks about her sister Rachel, who Olivia says moved to Chicago with her daughter Ella, in order to be closer to her ex-husband.
After, she goes to Broyles who tells her they don't know if she's fit or not. But Rachel is still married and has a second child, Eddie.
Forty percent of the information she provided was incorrect; she's not the agent they licensed.
Olivia comes home to Peter, who suggests they take a vacation if she can't go back to work.Peter gets called to a case.
At the lab, Lincoln mentions Vertus air and Peter guesses the flight number. Walter comes out with a box of birthday presents he bought each year for his dead Peter, including a bottle of beer for his 21st birthday. Peter gives him a hug.
Peter recaps his old case: Marshall Bowman was an undercover cop given a designer virus to rewrite his DNA and turn him into a giant werecupine. But the plane crashed and he was burned to a crisp.Astrid says that's the guy, but the flight didn't crash.
They watch TSA security footage of the giant werecupine attacking.At the scene, Marshall is a giant dead werecupine.
Peter talks to his sister, who saw him a week ago. Peter asks her about Marshall's notes that say "once you get started there will be no turning back."
Marshall worked in France at a bank, but retired from being a cop six years ago -- he probably was undercover. Peter remembers Marshall was working with a partner who nearly transformed, too. He can't think of the partner's name, but wonders if Olivia will know.
She does: Daniel Hicks.
On the drive there, Peter asks Lincoln if he wants to talk about Olivia. Lincoln sees the way Olivia looks at Peter and is happy to leave it at that. Peter says Lincolns a good guy, but Lincoln is clearly struggling.
They pull up to Daniel Hicks' house and Olivia is waiting.
Hicks isn't there, but they go in and look. The house is in shambles, the fridge is empty and the windows are blacked out and the lights don't work. There's a medical waste bag in the kitchen.
Lincoln realizes Olivia doesn't remember recruiting him for Fringe, the nights they met at the diner.We see a giant werecupine race by, but they don't.
Lincoln goes to inspect the house and gets thrown to the floor by it. Olivia fires but it gets away.
Back at the lab, Walter stitches up Lincoln's shoulder. Peter looks at Marshall's werecupine body. They think the rapid mutation must have killed him. They haven't made sense of the vials yet.They notice track marks and a tattoo.
Olivia apologizes to Lincoln for showing up at the house and letting him get hurt.
Astrid runs Conrad Etienne Moreau, a scientist whose name Olivia remembers from the first case, but he died five years ago. So if he's not the one behind it this time, who is?
Walter announces the tattoo is Sumerian.Peter remembers someone they can ask.
With Lincoln mid-suture, he stays behind while Peter and Olivia go talk to the ancient book seller Edward Markham. Peter doesn't expect him to remember them.
They open by asking for a rare science fiction book then mention Sumerian.They show him the tattoo."Are you one of them?" he asks.
At the lab, Walter offers Lincoln peanut butter and bacon sandwiches. And then he casually mentions that Lincoln might be infected with the werecupine virus. He can't treat him until the virus take full hold, and then he's only 80% sure it'll work.
Back at the book sellers, they learn the tattoo means renewal or rebirth. Markham says there have been rumblings about a new cult out there obsessed with the guided evolution of man, mutation by design.
A woman comes home alone to her dark apartment. The werecupine is there. But when she sees it waiting in the dark she sympathetically says: "Oh baby, you're hurting."
She hugs it and injects him with something, telling him to think how special he's going to be, how special they're both going to be. "Like Adam and Eve," she says.
Peter, Olivia and Astrid mock the guided evolution chat rooms and Walter enjoys the family feel. Lincoln feels left out and waits to see if he's infected with werecupine virus.
Walter see a lab file cited on a chat room that he recognizes as a psychedelic product of he and William Bell from years ago.
Off to Massive Dynamic. Nina confirms it is one of theirs and checks their old project records. The contents have been erased. It was being overseen by David Robert Jones.
Back in the lab, Lincoln is chowing down on Walter's bacon. He has weird cravings, for onion rings and cheese cake. He stares longingly at Walter's love handles. Walter has an epiphany.
They come back and Walter excitedly announces that Lincoln is infected. But he'll be OK. He understands the creature was craving human fat -- that's what was in the bag, probably from lipsuction. Fat stores energy and energy is necessary for transformation.
They start to check plastic surgery centers for break ins. Peter wonders how the creatures get around without being seen.
Cut to the woman on a rooftop with her beast. He takes her gently in his arms and jumps off the building -- but then soars off into the night. A werecupine with wings.
Back in the lab, Walter makes Lincoln a mixture of wheat grass, penicillin, laxatives and mint to kill the after taste.He figured out the drugs Bowman had on him were to ensure the transformation doesn't occur too quickly. But they were in his checked bag.
Walter used Lincoln's infected blood to create a computer model to replicate the transformation. A werecupine takes shape on the computer screen.
Olivia and Astrid report there was a break in at a surgery center and bags of fat were stolen but now it's under lockdown. There are 45 others clinics nearby.The computer model finishes and they see wings.
They check to see how many clinics were in high rises. Just one.
Lincoln tells Peter he has to call Broyles for back up. Peter is debating how much trouble that will get Olivia in when she gets off the phone announcing she just spoke to him.
At the clinic, SWAT teams sweep through with night vision on. The beast is there but they don't see it sneak around in the dark.
Olivia and Walter wait at the lab, Olivia realizes werecupines are nocturnal, which is why Hicks' windows were blacked out.
Astrid tries to radio Lincoln but can't reach him. She calls Peter, telling him to turn on the lights to scare it out of hiding.
Peter flips the lights just as the beast jumps out at Lincoln. It's scared off him and Lincoln is able to get off a few shots, killing it.
He's taking a deep breath when the wife jumps out and attacks him. She has the drop on him and he's losing, when Peter shoots her.
She lives, and cries over her dead beast husband.
Back at the lab, Walter opens the presents he got for Peter. He's excited to play with them with Peter.
Olivia reports the wife is OK and the hospital is treating her with Walter's cure. But she has no idea who made the virus.
Olivia wonders where David Robert Jones is recruiting these people from. Walter says David Robert Jones has a God complex and is trying to control things like evolution.
Broyles stops by to talk to Olivia. She starts by apologizing and promising that she'll listen to him from now on.
He's been on the phone with his bosses for hours and they've decided that 60% of an Agent Olivia Dunham is still better than 90% of other agents. She's back in Fringe.
Elsewhere, Marshall Bowen's sister talks to her husband, who is having second thoughts. But she isn't. She thinks they can be children of the new world. He agrees and they do their injections. She has a Sumerian tattoo as well.
Cut to two beasts in cages, in a basement with other beasties from spiders, squids and all manner of new evolutionary weirdness. A man checks on the cages and walks up the stairs. They're on a giant freighter out in the middle of the ocean.

Olivia gives Lincoln a small talisman with his dead partner's name, Robert Danzing, engraved on it. She barely remembers he was Lincoln's partner. He reminds her he gave it to her as a thank you for saving his life. It's Native American, with a maze and a person on it, with home in the center. He gave it to Lincoln because he moved around a lot. Danzing gave it to him to remind him he always had a home, he called it his tether.
Astrid arrives with files. The Other Side wants a detailed debrief of their run-ins with Robert David Jones and she is going because of the holes in Olivia's memory.
Lincoln goes to Broyles, telling him he could use the time away.
The Other SideA woman walks to her car on top of a parking garage late at night. A man grabs her before she can get to her car. He knocks her down and takes out a knife. Then they both see a disfigured person standing behind him, with a bloated face and stringy hair. He takes on the attacker.
Lincoln takes the files to the bridge and crosses over.Bolivia joins him. He vaguely tells her what's going on with his Olivia.
In the car, he watches a news conference of Walternate talking about opening up closed off zones of the city. The opening of the bridge is leading to fewer rifts on their side.
She asks him to settle a bet and asks his middle name: Tyrone.
At the scene, Bolivia rubs it in Captain Lee's face. They've been partners six years and he wouldn't tell her.
Captain Lee briefs them, there have been a string of vigilante crimes. The assailant's face is melted. It's the first assailant/victim they've found.
A man who looks just like the attacker packs things into a van. Nearnby, a Fringe team does a sweep and pronounces the area clear. They get a reading of a high level of tissue organics.The man hides in his van.
The team follows the reading and finds recent footsteps into a church basement, even though the zone's been uninhabitable for eight years.They find piles of melted bodies.
Bolivia and the Lees report to the church. Agent Lee asks to stick around on the Other Side to help, a random FBI agent asks to shake his hand. Bolivia explains that on this side, his Fringe team are heroes for helping heal their world.
The man, Canaan, goes to a soup kitchen for some food. One of the other homeless men tells him he has something on his neck. It's a bubbling patch that is oozing and looks like a bad burn. Canaan runs out.
In the church basement, they count 18 bodies, 19 heads.Olivia notices a bed, someone was living there. That would explain why he left his last victim behind, because he knew the zone was being opened and his lair would be discovered.
Lincoln notices a necklace and lifts it off the oozing body. It's a locket with a blonde woman's picture in it. As he lift the locket the head falls off and he sees holes in the roof of its mouth. He asks if they can calculate time of death.
Back at Fringe, Capt. Lee gets Agent Lee the info. Agent Lee asks Astrid to look for surveillance footage. He's not ready to talk about his theory yet.
Capt. Lee asks Agent Lee why he doesn't want to go back home. They decide they're not very alike. They compare histories to see where they diverged: they grew up in the same town, went to the same high school, had the same prom date.
Astrid gets a facial recognition hit on the woman in the locket. Her face has bubbly pink growth on it and the footage is from two days after she died.
Agent Lee tells Broyles he thinks the vigilante is a shape shifter.
He explains he's studied up on shape-shifters since his partner was killed by one. The earlier versions used a three-pronged device in their palette that left holes just like the victim in the church had. He can't explain why the other victims don't have the same wounds.
Broyles shuts him down hard and orders him to go home.
Canaan watches a young boy play soccer in a park, with tears in his eyes.
Two junkies get stoned out of their minds. One goes to the bathroom and the other is attacked by Cannan, who pulls a tube like an umbilical cord out of his mouth and jams it into the junkie's palette. The other one hides and watches in horror.
Astrid relays the report to Broyles. They lock down the area.
Agent Lee suggests they circulate the victim's mug shot, in case they are dealing with a shape shifter.
On the way there, Bolivia gets a report from Astrid that they've spotted the shifter. Teams converge on the area and satellites show he's heading toward Agent Lee. Over the comms, Captain Lee tells him he's a good agent, but Agent Lee wonders where their paths diverged.
Agent Lee sees the suspect and starts chasing him, he follows him into a building. He's looking for him in the warehouse when all of a sudden he gets tackled from behind.
Agent Lee's gun gets knocked out and the shifter gets it. Agent Lee is on the ground, defenseless, and the shifter aims at him, but takes pity and doesn't fire.
He runs and is quickly surrounded by Bolivia, Captain Lee and their teams. Agent Lee shouts at them not to shoot.The shifter surrenders.
Broyles gets the news back at Fringe Division. He makes a call, telling someone they have him in custody and giving the location."Thank you Colonel, we'll take it from here," says Nina from the other end of the line.
Agent Lee looks in on the suspect. Bolivia comes to get Lee to move him out, but he asks her for five minutes alone with the shifter to talk to him before he's taken into custody.
A man with a briefcase goes to the top floor of a building. He opens the case and assembles his high powered rifle.
Agent Lee dismisses the agents guarding the shifter, to talk to him alone. He asks the shifter why he didn't kill him when he had the chance.
He sees the picture of the young boy. Lee asks if it's his son, the shifter says it's her boy."Jones took you from them when he did this to you?" Lee says.
Jones came later, she left him first and took Daniel with her. "They just went on living their lives as if I was never there," he says.
He says he's not a person who drifts through life effortlessly. "I wanted to be needed or at least to be missed, do you understand?"Lincoln does.
Dr. Jones understood and promised to make him something better. He was supposed to be the first of a new breed of humans, but he was a disappointment.
Lee points that David Robert Jones is not worth protecting.The shifter says Jones promised he'd come for him, to fix him.
Lee walks out.
Outside, Captain Lee escorts the shifter to the transport van. The sniper takes aim, but misses. Olivia grabs her own rifle and takes aim. She hits the sniper.
Then Agent Lee sees that Captain Lee was hit. He's down but manages to ask Bolivia who else knew they were transporting the shifter.
Agent Lee grabs the shifter and tells him the bullet was meant for him, that Jones, the man he is protecting, just tried to have him killed.
"You can keep waiting for someone else to define you, to give you your place in the world. Or you can decide that you're not just somebody's broken puppet anymore. Choose!" Lee tells him.
Fort Lee, New JerseyNina surveys a room full of shifters in tanks. The sniper returns from his mission."I trust you have good news for me," she says to him.
"I do, we've tied up our loose end," he says. He says the red head nearly took his head off with a nearly impossible shot.
Alarms start to go off signaling a security breach. Nina wheels around and sees the sniper -- not actually the sniper -- at the computer. It's Canaan.
Bolivia and Agent Lee and teams of agents come down the hall. Nina makes it out the side door, but is stopped on the roof by helicopters.
Broyles gets a call that Nina has been captured.
Astrid comes in to report something to Broyles. She's upset.
Back in Nina's lab, Agent Lee finds that there's a tracking system for all of the shape shifters. An agent comes to tell Bolivia bad news. Captain Lee didn't make it.
Agent Lee goes through the bridge with Canaan (in sniper form).
Agent Lee tells Canaan there's a man there who can help him."I'm really looking forward to studying- helping you," Walter tells him.Lee tells Canaan he thinks he'll like it there, he won't have to wait for anyone to give him a home.
Agent Lee gives Canaan his talisman, "to keep you from floating away."
Bolivia goes through her Lincoln Lee's things and finds a picture of the two of them. Agent Lee comes back.
He tells her they have a lot of intel on Jones and he thought he might stick around for awhile, that she might need some help.They need each other. He, who loves another version of her, and she, who just lost her version of him.She says that'd be nice.

Fauxlivia talks to Nina Sharp in lock-up, offering her a deal in exchange for the name of Jones' mole. Nina won't play. She tells Olivia she won't be in prison long.
"It's your world you should be concerned about, because as bad as you think things are here now, things are going to get much worse," Nina tells her.
Our side, ManhattanIn a board room a boss harangues an employee who's in trouble because they didn't finish a presentation in time. So the boss had to miss his flight and they lost an account.
As the boss is speaking, about to fire the underling, suddenly he is seemingly yanked up out of his chair and thrust up to the ceiling, floating. Then he crashes to the conference table -- only four feet down -- but his body is pulverized.
Walter and Astrid arrive on the scene, where Walter is really glowy about seeing Olivia and Peter together.There are two victims who died the same way.
Walter looks at the victim and says the bones in his legs are totally shattered. His spinal column was pushed up through his torso, injuries that would come from greater velocity.
Walter notices marks across the victim's laps. Peter suggests they look like seat belt marks. Olivia gets a call about a third victim who died similarly in his apartment, he was a pilot.
Walter realizes the injuries look like they were from a plane crash.
The Other SideAstrid reports to Broyles that they confirmed Walter's suspicion, there was a plane crash on their side 90 minutes ago. There were three fatalities, two men and a pilot.
Fauxlivia comes in off topic with a list of 108 people with clearance to tip off David Robert Jones. She wants to start background checks and surveillance. She recaps the things DRJ has known, including that they were coming to his lab, they were tracking him and the latest that got Lincoln killed -- all tips Broyles gave DRJ.
Broyles says he'll try to cut through the red tape.But first he sends Fauxlivia to the bridge to pick up their counterparts for the plane investigation.
Our SideOlivia escorts Walter to the other side. He's planning to collect samples of the victims and return home. He appreciates her trusting him to do it alone.
Fauxlivia and Agent Lee arrive."Ah, my escort is here -- and by 'escort', I don't mean 'prostitute'," Walter says of Fauxlivia.
Olivia asks Lincoln how Fauxlivia is doing and tells him to take care of Walter.
Outside the bridge, Walter sees a list of hot spots where the damage is the worst. But Fauxlivia says it's getting better.
As for the plane crash affecting both sides, Walter never expected anything like it. Fauxlivia wonders if DRJ could have caused it."If Jones caused this, he's conceived of something Belly and I never did," Walter says.
Walter runs tests on the bodies with a tuning fork, a perfect G. He brought a hand from a victim from our side --it makes a G as well, but Walter says it should be a C. Each universe vibrates at its own frequency. Everything from the Other Side is G, ours is C.Somehow the dopplegangers were linked across universes.
They don't have black boxes on The Other Side, but they listen to satellite recording of the plane crash. There's a lot of yelling and beeping at the end with the pilot shouting that instruments are failing.
Whatever merged the two universes destabilized the aircraft. He thinks they attached something to the airplane.They wonder what the suspect is trying to prove. Walter has no idea.
Cut to DRJ meeting with someone on a park bench. He asks about their experiment with the plane. He tells the man to surprise him with the next one.
Broyles comes home and says hi to his wife and learns that someone is there to see him.Broyles finds David Robert Jones sitting on his couch. Broyles isn't happy to see him. DRJ brought medication for Broyles' son Christopher, who is responding extremely well to treatment. He used to be in constant pain, he was dying.
Broyles knows he'll have to answer for what he's done, but he's just trying to keep his son alive.DRJ warns Broyles he'll be calling on him shortly.
Our sideThe man DRJ met with rides in a cab with a briefcase. He gets out and a woman gets in. He leaves the briefcase.
The Other SideThe same woman shops in a pet store.
Our SideBack in the cab, the briefcase charges up. There's a loud noise and vibration.
On the Other Side, the woman pays for her items but is suddenly yanked across the floor and into a display. She starts spitting up dirty water.
Our SideA cab went over the bridge, the same time the woman on the Other Side died.
Both Astrids meet in the bridge. Our Astrid brought her doppelganger coffee -- her favorite.They conference with their people in the field, each reporting on their victims. They have the same name, both have broken left arms.
Peter asks what he's looking for. Walter reports from the Other Side to Astrid, via Astrid, to Peter. He has no idea.Peter finds the briefcase. There's amphylicite inside. It's David Robert Jones.
Broyles meets with Fauxlivia, Lincoln and Walter. Walter still has no idea what DRJ is up to. Walter complains about his pillow and Fauxlivia offers to put him up in her guest room.
With Fauxlivia and Lincoln out of the room, Walter blames himself for what's happening because he crossed over years ago. Broyles asks if he'd do anything differently.
Walter says now that he's met Peter as an adult, he's not sure he would.
Astrid surprises Fauxlivia by reporting that she ran her 108 names and found nothing out of the ordinary. Broyles gave her the list.
Broyles meets with DRJ, who gives him a small box he wants him to attach to the control panel on the bridge. Broyles reminds him the machine is healing the worlds.
DRJ reminds him he's healing his son.He wants it there before sundown tomorrow.
At home, Broyles prepares to give his son an injection into the port on his heart. His son is fired up about getting picked for kickball and winning and being told a girl in his class likes him. Broyles enjoys the quality time.
In the middle of the night, Walter creeps around Fauxlivia's apartment in her silk kimono and finds her drinking alone in her living room. She's hammered and looking over the evidence from Lincoln's murder.
She tells Walter she's looking for a mole.She has Lincoln's things but can't bring herself to face his parents without answers.
Walter makes her eggs to sober her up. She tells him there is no evidence at all about the mole. He cites Sherlock Holmes, "The Dog Who Did Not Bark" -- that no evidence, is evidence.
Walter suggests Broyles, but Fauxlivia dismisses him out of hand. He tells her no one should be above suspicion.
Fauxlivia visits Nina Sharp in lock-up and turns off the camera.She tells her they have Colonel Broyles in custody and he won't be able to free her.
Nina takes it in then says: "Phillip is irrelevant, he's just another pawn."She says DRJ will come for her.
Fauxlivia meets with Agent Lincoln Lee, telling him Nina confirmed her suspicions. Astrid interrupts to say no one has seen Broyles and his tracker was turned off.
Cut to Broyles outside the bridge with the device from DRJ.Broyles walks inside and passes security with no problem.
Astrid gets notice of the swipe.
Broyles goes through the layers of security to get to the bridge.
Fauxlivia and Lincoln race to the bridge.
Broyles reaches the machine, they get held up at the security checks. Broyles contemplates the device.
Someone joins him.
It's the other Broyles. He got his message.Fauxlivia and Lincoln arrive just in time to hear our Broyles report that Col. Broyles turned himself in. He tells Fauxlivia he's sorry.
Later, Fauxlivia and Lincoln say good bye to Walter at the bridge. Walter tells her not to judge Broyles, he was trying to save someone he loved.
Lincoln sticks around, telling Fauxlivia he still wants to find everyone responsible.
Broyles is escorted to his cell, past Nina Sharp.
Back on our side in Walter's lab, Peter and Olivia race to hear what he's found. He says DRJ was just conducting a test, taking readings. He wanted to find a common denominator, a frequency to link both universes.
If Broyles had uploaded the device to the machine, Jones could have collapsed both universes.

They would combine and create a big bang, mutual destruction on both sides. He would do it to create another universe where the laws of physics and nature are controlled by him.
It came to Walter in a dream. This makes some of the other Fringers skeptical, but Walternate suggests they consider it.
Sydney, Australia. A woman follows a map to precise coordinates, wearing a clock counting down past one minute. A man does the same in Bejing, China and another woman in the Himalayas, Nepal.In Manhattan, another man does the same.
They follow their maps to the locations -- on a rooftop, in a stream, in the middle of the street and shut their eyes and wait. The universe starts vibrating around them, the veins in their foreheads bulge. The ground cracks under the man in NY.
Peter reminds them about the destruction of Westfield, where one part of town was protected. Walter thinks DRJ has built a safe zone where he and his creations will be safe.
Walternate gets a message from command and leaves the room. Everyone else gets calls shortly after.
Multiple reports of earthquakes all over both worlds.
Fringe Division, the Other SideThey all started at the same time and were between 5.7 and 7.1 on the Richter scale. The 27 locations of the quakes were the same in both universes. Fauxlivia thinks he must have had an amphilicite trigger.
Our SideWalter examines shoes from the epicenter in the earthquake in Manhattan. They vibrate at the key of E -- not the frequency of either universe. He thinks Jones is trying to tune the two universes. The vibrations are weakening the barrier between the two universes. If he does it enough times in the right locations, collapse is inevitable.
At Fringe DivisionLincoln gets a visit from a childhood friend named Nick Lane (a childhood friend of the other Lincoln). He had a vision of the earthquake but didn't know it was actually happening.
HarvardThey have footage of the woman in Sydney, standing still as everyone else runs. They wonder if she had a device on her to trigger it.
Olivia gets a call from Lincoln, at the bridge. He tells her about Nick's vision and that it sounds like he saw our side, not the Other Side where Nick is. He described a Manhattan without the Twin Towers. Olivia recognizes the name.
She looks at the video from Sydney again and realizes it's Sally Clark. Sally and Olivia and Nick were in the Cortexiphan trials together. David Robert Jones isn't using amphilicite, he's using Cortexiphan subjects as the devices.
Walter explains: Nick and the Cortexiphan kids are using their alternates to draw on their frequencies to merge the universes.Peter wonders if the connection between the two universes is facilitating what they're doing. Peter suggests closing the bridge, shutting down the machine. That would also stop the healing on the Other Side.
Olivia has another idea.
Fauxlivia brings Nick to the bridge and then to Walter's lab. Walter injects him with Cortexiphan. The idea is that amping his up will help Olivia locate the Nick on this side who's participating in the earthquakes.They link the two of them with forehead wires. Olivia watches Nick pass the Newbery/Rockpoort train station. Peter and Lincoln head there with a team.
Olivia sees that Nick has a map and is looking for something. She sees him on the Salem Bay University campus. He's standing in a quad and looks at the timer counting down past 15 seconds. He's going to trigger another earth quake.
Peter sees him and the teams converge. They get him but in the lab Astrid can see reports of seismic activity from around the globe.
Nick sits in holding. He has a scar on his forehead. Broyles tells the team the quakes are causing fluctuations in the earth's magnetic fields. They have Nick's watch, the tech is from the Other Side. They wonder how many more quakes it'll take to collapse the universes.Walter is surprised it hasn't already happened.
Broyles has been called to Washington, they want to discuss shutting off the machine.
Olivia wants to interrogate Nick Lane. She immediately asks him where David Robert Jones is. Nick says he can't tell her. He tells her they're on the same side. He reminds her about what they prepared them for as kids. The war they warned them about is happening. He says Jones is on their side and is protecting them.Watching, Walter figures out what he's talking about.
Nick only works with Jones, he doesn't know the others. He thinks the damage the earthquakes are causing on the Other Side will destroy it. He says there's one more offensive left and the Other Side will surrender. Olivia tells him Jones is using him and there is no war.
Peter takes apart the timer on the Other Side. He talks about closing the bridge with Lincoln. He would at least appreciate that things would go back to normal. He would stay on our side, he tells Lincoln, saying he's come to believe that home is where the heart is.
They notice the timer has reset. It's counting down from 6 hours.
In holding, Olivia brings it to Nick, telling him that in six hours, everyone he loves may cease to exist. She says he's the only one who can stop it from happening. He tells her about having bad thoughts in college and that he had to make it stop. He was going to kill himself and had the knife in his hand when his parents called. His sister had just slit her wrists, his emotions have reverse impact.
David Robert Jones found him three years ago telling him he needed warriors. DRJ taught him how to channel his power and control it.
Olivia tells him she's worked with the Other Side and they're not our enemy. She tells him about closing the bridge and that he can help all those people.
Nick helps them. Walter tells him their theory about DRJ's plan to create a safe zone with a force field. Nick says DRJ usually came to him, but one time he met him in a warehouse.He takes them to it.
Teams go in. They hear a loud mechanical noise.
In the car outside, Nick is nervous and antsy. He tells the agent with him that he's pathetic for not questioning DRJ, that he should have just killed himself."You feel that don't you?" Nick asks the agent.
Inside, they find nothing. They get called back outside, where the agent has stabbed himself.
Nick escaped.
At the bridge conference room, the clock is at 47 minutes. Broyles says Washington is leaving the decision up to the people in the room.
Walternate and Walter agree they have to close the bridge.
At the machine, Peter connects to it and initiates a system overload. The power will surge and they'll shut it down.
Walternate tells Walter that Peter is remarkable, smart and noble, all the things he would have wished for him. Walter excuses himself but Walternate finds him in the hallway.
"I know what you're afraid of. It occurs to me, so I know it occurs to you to: If the machine stops working, Peter may disappear," Walternate says.
"I believe it brought him here, I believe it may take him away," Walter says.
Walter has come to accept that Peter isn't theirs.
The overload is near. Lincoln finishes talking to Broyles. Lincoln reminds Peter what he said about home being where the heart is, then he looks at Fauxlivia. He thinks he's found his.
Fauxlivia tells Olivia there's a lot about her she admires.
Lincoln joins the other team.As the machine nears overload, Walter prepares to shut it off. The teams face each other.
It's time.
He shuts it off.
The room shakes, the machine blurs and on our side, the Other Side disappears.
Peter is still there. Walter tells him he'll miss them.
(Eight minutes remain on DRJ clock.)

Peter and Olivia return to the empty lab. He asks her about the "Jedi mind trick" she pulled on the roof with David Robert Jones. She's uncomfortable, but chalks it up to cortexiphan. She agrees to let Walter run tests when he returns.
Olivia gets a call from Jessica (Rebecca Mader), who Olivia cured of nanites with her kinetic powers. Jessica is worried someone is following her. We see someone standing in her kitchen. Olivia says they'll be right over. The person in Jessica's kitchen is September, our favorite Observer (Michael Cerveris). He starts to follow her through the house, but he walks over a symbol on the floor that glues him in place.
Olivia and Peter reach Jessica's house. The door is open, her purse and phone are on the table.There's a big hole cut out of the floor where the Observer was trapped.
Broyles calls, Astrid was just brought to the hospital with a gunshot wound following an anonymous 911 call.Astrid is out of surgery.
At the hospital, Astrid tells them they went looking for William Bell in the waterfront warehouse. She wasn't found there. She feels awful she couldn't protect Walter. She tells them where to find the warehouse and that it was full of strange animals.
Olivia and Peter go to A1 Imports warehouse. She wonders about the connection between the nanites and his using the sun's power to collapse an oil reserve.
The warehouse is empty except for the Observer, glued to his piece of cut out floor. He tells them he's not there of his own volition.
Jessica walks out with a gun on them. If they ever want to see Walter alive, Olivia has to drop her gun. The Observer is immobilized and can't help. She works for Bell, she was infected intentionally.
The Observer is concerned about the events in Olivia's life and Bell said if they put Olivia's life in harm's way, he'd appear.
She fires at the Observer three times. He catches each bullet. They operate in hyperattenuated time -- they can move very fast.
She takes out a gun Bell invented that shoots faster. She shoots. The bullet hits the Observer. Olivia gets angry, asking Jessica what she wants.
Jessica shoots at the Observer again, but Olivia stops the bullets with her powers and flings them back at Jessica, killing her.
September is surprised they knew how to trap him. Peter scrapes the glowing symbol off the floor and frees him. The Observer doesn't know where Walter is. Now they know how the Observer gets shot.Olivia asks him about what he told her at the Opera house, that in every version of the future she has to die.
September says it hasn't happened yet for him so he goes to investigate the future and find out what he meant.
They take Jessica's body back to the lab to interrogate her dead body. Nina Sharp shows up to help, not caring for now how Peter knew they had the technology.
Olivia is angry about being manipulated to activate her powers. Nina figures William Bell needs something only she can provide.
At sea on Bell's version of Noah's Ark, Walter asks Bell why he's doing this.
Bell tells him this was all Walter's idea. He was angry with God after Peter died twice. He wanted to create his own universe that would operate by his rules. But when he realized he could actually do it, he got scared and had Bell take that part of his brain out -- to put the genie back in the bottle.
Bell got cancer and started dosing himself with cortexiphan to slow it. He says it's their destiny to act as gods since they're able.
Walter objects."Dear friend, even if you deny it now, you've always been playing God. I am," Bell says.
Back in the lab, they jolt Jessica and she starts talking. Her eyes go googly and they try to get her to focus what she's saying. She says he's on a boat. They ask how he's going to collapse the two universes. She says he needs an energy source. They can't get her to say what he's going to use.
Olivia grabs on to her and demands and answer, but she blows out all the electricity in the lab and essentially re-kills Jessica.
Olivia realizes she's the energy source.
They scan her, she's giving off a ton of electromagnetic energy. Nina thinks she can trace Bell if he's using that power.
The go to the FBI and find a tanker left Boston port 6 hours ago but it's not on the radar. Nina explains that Olivia's frequency will match the one where the universes are overlapping, so they search for it. He'll be hiding out there, in the eye of the storm.
Olivia goes to an empty room to contemplate what Bell has in store for her. Olivia feels the same way she did when Bell was doing experiments on her as a child. Peter reminds her this time she's not alone.
On the ship, Walter looks at an old gun in a case in Bell's office. Bell insists he look out the window. The sea is roiling and full of electrical charges and creepy storm clouds.
In the lab, they find Bell's frequency. Broyles calls for helicopters. Olivia, Peter, Nina and Broyles head out. On the ship, Walter begs Bell to stop.Bell says they deserve it.
They get to the spot and no one can see the ship except Peter, because it's on the other side. Olivia can jump between universes and Peter can see it.Nina assures her she has the power.
Peter and Olivia climb out of the chopper."If you've lost your mind, now would be the time to tell me," she says to him.Peter gives directions to the chopper pilot and they jump.
They phase into the other world and land on a container.
Bell recites Yeats as Walter fiddles with the old gun. Bell doesn't stop him.Peter and Olivia bust in.
Bell welcomes them as his Adam and Eve. Peter aims at Bell and commands him to stop the collapse, but Bell explains that the chain reaction has begun and it can't be stopped. With every breath Olivia takes, they head toward the inevitable collapse.
Walter aims the old gun. He shoots Olivia in the forehead.She drops, the electrical storm stops, the ship appears on our side on a clear day.
Peter runs to her."You killed her!" he says."Yes, indeed he did," Bell says. He rings his soul Bell and laments to Walter how happy they could have been. He phases away.
Walter tries to get Peter's attention, saying they only have a few minutes. Peter is gripped with pain and crying and holding on to her. Walter slaps Peter to get him to focus and calls for a letter opener. They put Olivia on a table.
Cortexiphan is regenerative and her brain is soaked with it. He thinks if he can get the bullet out, she has a chance, just like his lemon cake.
He digs the letter opener into the base of her skull to create an exit wound. Using a snapped off antennae he drives it through Olivia's skull. He hopes that any damage he does will repair itself. He taps the antennae in her head and the bullet casing pops out the back of her head.
They both wait.
Slowly, the bullet hole closes. Olivia starts breathing.
In DC, Broyles learns that there are no traces of Bell anywhere. His animals are being cryogentically frozen for his team's future study. They're granting his funding request and he's promoted to general.
Nina greets him outside. He asks her to run the new fully funded science division. "Nina, you want a job?" he says.
In the hospital, Peter and Walter wait in the hall. Walter thinks after all this Olivia will have almost no cortexiphan in her system -- no more lighting fires with her mind.
A nurse walks by with a tray of urine samples. Walter asks if it's lemon jello. When told what it is, he says "well, in that case no thank you. I'm more pekish than thirsty."
He thinks Olivia will be normal now. Astrid joins them. The doctor tells them Olivia's ready to go home. Peter goes to see her.
Astrid presents Walter with a bouquet of Red Vines.He gets her name right.
Peter brings a newspaper in with a house for them. She thinks it's perfect.
"I suppose he was right, the Observer, in every version of the future you had to die. But I don't ever want to lose you again," he says.
He hugs her but he can tell that there's something else.
"Peter, I'm pregnant," she says.
It's a big happy family reunion as Walter and Astrid join at the doorway.
Harvard University
Walter goes poking through the fridge and makes himself a late night PB & J. September joins him.
"We have to warn the others -- they are coming," he says.
"Who's coming?" Walter asks.

Later, in a triage center, Peter frantically looks around for his daughter. Olivia is being tended to.Peter wakes up in his house.
Walter is asleep on the couch, Peter checks on Henrietta in the bedroom. She calls him dad. She holds onto a bullet fragment she wears on a necklace.Walter looks out the window at the world as it is now, light reflects off something and dances on the wall.
Astrid gives Peter some "egg sticks" she found in the fridge and welcomes him to 2036. She argues with electronic scrabble that naugahyde is in fact a word, a very quality premium pleather.
Walter is ready to look for Olivia. The last time she spoke to her she called him from Columbus Circle in 2015. Then she disappeared. He sent her to find something that was part of the plan to defeat the Observers.
He and September worked on the plan and after they completed each component the information was scrambled in Walter's mind, a precaution against being read.
He had to retrieve something from Grand Central station for the plan to be clear, that's what Olivia was getting when she disappeared. Two days later, Walter ambered them.
Peter promises Henrietta that if Olivia's still alive, they'll find her.
They head out in a van to the dirty, dystopian future. Columbus Circle is a graffiti, junk filled mess, surrounded by barbed wire. Central Park is gone. They paved it to build a machine that pumps carbon monoxide into the air, there's one on every continent. The environment is too oxygen-rich for Observers, in a few more years the effects will be irreversible and the average non-Observer lifespan will be reduced to around 45 years.
Walter remembers Olivia was running when she called him. Astrid points out the amber down the block, they had discussed using it to hide in as a last resort. They check out the amber and find four people-sized holes removed. Amber gypsies.
Henrietta takes them to a black market and points Peter toward the gypsies. They might recognize her from Fringe. She gives Peter and Astrid cash, and walnuts, to close the deal. The amber dealer points them toward the "freshest cuts" but doesn't like something about them and presses a red button.
Walter talks to Henrietta. For him it was just two months ago that he took her to a carousel as a little girl.
Peter and Astrid check out the ambered bodies, looking for Olivia. They go back to the guy at counter and Peter shows his walnuts, describing Olivia. She was sold.
Cut to Edward Markham the rare book dealer at home, watching "Maverick" on TV. He's using Olivia in amber as a table. His doorbell rings. Someone asks for Markham, he grabs a gun and Peter, Henrietta, Walter and Henrietta bust down the door. Peter easily grabs the gun.He sees Olivia. Markham loves her and says he wasn't going to hurt her. She's supposed to fall in love with him when she wakes up.
Back at the black market, the amber gypsy calls in "level 4" intel. He holds a card that says "Future in Order" and demands vouchers for his "loyalty."
Back at Markham's, Walter is transfixed by the old stuff. An Observer appears in the doorway."Resistance is futile," he says, aiming a gun at Walter.Henrietta shoots the Observer. "I feel like I've heard that before," she says.The Observer knocks her door, but she shoots again. Outside, soldiers appear. Walter's still inside but Astrid, Henrietta and Peter have to leave him to get away.
Safely away, Peter gets Olivia out of the amber. She ambered herself. Peter introduces her to Etta. The last time Olivia saw her she was three years old.
After their reunion, Olivia turns over the item she got for Walter at Grand Central Station.
Captain Windmark, the head Observer, comes to talk to Walter, who is handcuffed to a chair.
"I'm very interested in you, I don't know why you're alive," Windmark tells him. Walter thinks of music, which the Observer doesn't understand."You seem much more interesting as a human being, than as a vegetable but, quite frankly, all things being equal, I don't mind which way you end up. The choice is yours," Windmark tells him.
Bronx, New YorkEtta passes a retinal scan and tells everyone to wait as she goes inside. There's a computer filled control room, with one of her fellow resisters dead inside, the other two mourning. She needs their help.
Waiting outside with Peter, Olivia realizes they didn't save the world. Etta is still trying.
Peter knows what she thought of him when he wouldn't leave Boston and go to New York with her after Etta disappeared."Peter, we lost our child and in our grief we were just incapable or unable of being what we needed to be for each other, that's all it was," she tells him.
Olivia went to save the world, but he couldn't stop looking for Etta.
Etta introduces her parents to Amel, a resistance fighter. He identifies the equipment Olivia has a "Transilience Thought Unifer Model 11." It retrieves specifically marked thoughts in your mind and unifies them, it was how Walter would know his plan with September. But it won't turn on.
Someone announces they've found Walter. They follow him on traffic camera footage. They worry what Walter might have already disclosed to the Observers.
Cut to Walter trying to keep the Observer from hearing his thoughts. Windmark realizes Walter is "partitioned" with information out of sequence. He begins probing into Walter's mind, and Walter twitches violently. Blood vessels burst in his eye.
Windmark thinks one of them helped Walter partition his thoughts. He demands Walter put them together. Walter tries to resist. His noise begins bleeding as he fights.Windmark could unify them with a Unifer but he would have to break Walter's biologically specific key. Windmark sees young Etta and wonders how a small child could be helping Walter.Walter passes out.
Etta tracks Walter to a building that no one has ever successfully broken into. Amel mentions tech they've been developing that would make them appear dead so they can get in, like a Trojan Horse.
Etta drives up to Fringe HQ with bodies in the back of her van -- the resistance fighters and Peter. Astrid hides in the van. A Fringe agent who's a little sweet on Etta scans them, showing they're dead. He tells her he was raised to level 6, then conspiratorially tells her that her boss Agent Foster was a double agent and was found in amber with someone named William Bell. He doesn't know what happened to him.
Back in the torture/interrogation room, Windmark won't let up on Walter, asking about his plan to defeat to them.
The bodies are brought into a room, Etta shoots the guard and wakes up Peter and the fighter.Peter and Etta sneak through the halls and let Olivia in a side entrance. They go to the control room that's pumping carbon monoxide for the Observers to breathe. Peter cuts the wires to the machine.
Back with Walter, Windmark says they're done there and Walter's brain will make an excellent specimen. When the carbon monoxide machine cuts out, Windmark leaves and Peter and Etta bust in. Walter is wiped out and can barely stand. They help him out, shooting their way out of the building. They get back in the van and speed away.
Walter wakes up enough to ask "Afro" if she has any music.
Windmark watches the security footage and recognizes Etta. "Hello little girl," he says.
Back to safety, Walter is happy to see Olivia. Peter shows Walter the Thought Unifer. It turns on as soon as Walter touches it, but he doesn't know what it's for or what the plan was. Astrid shows him William Bell's severed hand in amber, which Walter said they needed to access one of his storage facilities. Walter doesn't remember any of it. "I've failed myself, I've failed the world! What is wrong with me?" he starts shouting.
They realize it's like the parts of the plan were taken. Etta says it's more like they were destroyed when Walter was fighting it. He won't heal. "The plan is gone," she says.
Walter sleeps fitfully in the other room. He wakes up and sees flashing sunlight on the wall. He goes outside , in his bathrobe and boxers, to find the source of the reflecting light. Someone has hung CDs up on twine and the sun is bouncing off them. Walter picks up a bag nearby, it has a CD in it labeled "Trip Mix." He puts it in an abandoned taxi and listens to a synthed out "Only You" by Yazoo. He notices a dandelion growing tall through the cracks of the dirty, broken concrete.

In the future/present, Peter wakes Olivia up from her nightmare. He reassures her that the family is back together, even thought it feels like it all just happened a few months ago.
In the kitchen, they find Walter with the thought unifier strapped to his head. It's having adverse effects, he's talking out of sequence. But he's determined to keep trying to retrieve the plan to defeat the Observers from the depths of his memory. He lapses into Swedish.
Olivia comes in and asks Walter if he might have written it down. Etta explains they can't get into Harvard, it's been taken over by Observers."Well that's not a problem for someone who's done acid," Walter says.They can use the steam tunnels for access.
He leads the group to an access point outside the barricade around Harvard. They race through a tunnel, dodging hot bursts of steam. They come out near the lab and make their way inside. It's covered in cobwebs, and half of it is in amber. Walter assumes he did it to protect it.
He sees his Betamax recorder on a tripod inside the amber. "I don't think I wrote anything down, I think I was making a video," he says.
They hear a door open. A guard comes to investigate. They cuff him and go through his things finding, among other things, a bag of bread crumbs. He's Gale Manfretti, a Loyalist. They decide what to do about him and wonder how he happened on the lab.
Walter decides he needs a laser and Olivia suggests he make one. They need to turn the power on from the sub basement of the science building. They wonder what they'd be walking into.
Etta points out Gale would know. She shuts the door and starts to interrogate him. She takes out a device that he recognizes and is afraid of.
She put a probe on each of his hands and asks him what the science building is used for. When he doesn't answer, she zaps him and he writhes, phasing in and out of time. He seems to age 20 years."I don't think you want to waste any more precious time," she tells him.
In the lab, Walter destroys a laser disc player for the laser. Olivia notices pigeons flying through the lab.
Olivia wonders what Etta is up to with Gale the guard. She checks on him and finds Gale is an old and wizened.
Etta explains it's an Angel device, it stirs up the atoms in his body and can age him 25 to 30 year on a full charge. The idea is that he gets so disoriented he loses the will to lie.
Olivia goes to give him water, but Etta says it'll kill him. Etta defends her methods, saying that loyalists aren't worth crying over. "This is war, and we're losing," she says.
Walter calls Etta for her necklace, he wants to melt down the silver for solder. Etta hands it over.
Gale tries to convince Olivia that people will come looking for him, but she doesn't buy it. She takes out his bread crumbs, she thinks he came to feed the birds and isn't even supposed to be there. Olivia urges Gale to talk before Etta takes more years off his life.
"I'm trying to help you," Olivia says."You don't have the authority to do that, do you?" he says. "You know a Loyalist doesn't just walk away when they've been captured by the Resistance."
"How can you be so sure?" she asks."Where are you from? You're new to the Resistance," he says.
He tells Olivia he knows he won't survive this so he'll tell Etta what he wants to know if Olivia agrees to tell his son he's not coming home. He doesn't want his son looking for him when he's not coming back .
Etta comes back in the room and Olivia gives him her silent agreement. Before Etta can dial the device back up, he tells her that the main power is still in the building and everyone has an access code. There are rumors of experiments in the building.
He gives them the numerical code, but mentions there's an ocular scanner. Walter is appalled by the Angel device, which Etta says the Observers invented and the Loyalists use.
He examines Gale's eye, which is cloudy with glaucoma. He calls for a scalpel and a spoon.
Later, Walter dissects the cornea of an eyeball. He flubs it and calls for another. He's working on a pig's eye, looking at a close-up of Gale's eyeball to copy it.
Olivia traces a Loyalist bar code onto Peter's cheek, lamenting the state of the world. Etta's up next. She thanks her mom for agreeing she's the best person to go to the power station. "I know you like to be in control, so do I," Etta says.
Peter, in Loyalist uniform, and Etta, walk through the halls of Harvard.
Left alone with Gale, Olivia has questions."Why does someone join the Loyalists?" she says.
"Pain," he says, telling her about one of his children dying in a Resistance explosion. After that, he just wanted to be safe. He was angry at the hopeless Resistance. As a Loyalist, he doesn't have to worry about the safety of his other son.He tells Olivia the world would be a safer place if the Resistance just stopped trying to fight.
Etta punches in Gale's code and Peter holds up the pig's eye for the scanner. It passes, but security wonders why he's in that sector and radios him. Olivia hears his walkie and holds it up for him, feeding him lines. Peter and Etta wait outside the door. Gale makes up a good enough excuse that security lets him in.
On the other side, Peter and Etta sees experiments being performed. Etta sees the dismembered head of her friend and former boss Simon Foster (Henry Ian Cusick).
She pulls out her gun to charge the room and Peter has to hold her back, reminding her to focus on the bigger picture. "There will be a time for vengeance, I promise," he says.
Back in the lab, Gale sincerely asks Olivia if she thinks they can win."We have to win, so that all the people who died, including your son, didn't die for nothing," she says.
Peter punches things into the mainframe to reroute power to the lab.Walter and Astrid get started using the laser to free the Betamax.
Peter and Etta return to the lab. Etta wordlessly goes into Gale and releases his cuffs, she tells him he's traveling.
She plans to turn him over to the Resistance and let them get whatever they can out of him.She tells Olivia that Gale doesn't have a son and only gave her the code because he saw weakness in her and thought maybe he could convince her to let him go. Olivia tries to talk to Etta.
"You don't know my world," Etta says."You're right, but I hoped for you, that where ever you were, that you weren't hardened by what happened to you. It's not that I don't see what the Observers have brought, I do, but what concerns me more is what they've taken away," Olivia says.
"This is the world. It is what it is," Etta says. She leaves Olivia alone with Gale. He gives her his address and son's name. She says she'll keep her word.
Etta goes to Walter for a sedative, then takes Gale away.
Peter frees the Betamax from the amber.
Etta drives Gale out to a field. He confesses he doesn't have a son, he hoped Olivia could convince her. He says he became a Loyalist because he's a coward.
She lets him go. He promises to help the Resistance, pointing out there aren't many Resistance fighters with an active tat ID.
He saw a certainty in Olivia that he's never seen before. "I felt, for the first time, that we were supposed to win," he says. He asks why she's letting him live.
"Something that I saw in her eyes as well. Pity," Etta says.
Walter takes the cassette out of the player. The laser might have damaged the tape. They press play.
Walter addresses whoever is watching, saying he's documented all the parts of the plan on video tape and they have to retrieve all of them to follow the plan. "If successful, this plan will restore us and rid the world of the Observers," he says.
Olivia's phone beeps. She pulls it out and sees video of Gale going free. Etta says she's on her way back.Taped Walter says "you are humanity's only hope."He tells the watcher to go retrieve the first tape, then he deploys the amber.

On tape, he explains the viewer has to go to Pennsylvania. He gives coordinates. Etta punches it into her GPS.
Walter finds his weed stash and makes excuses to stay behind while they head to Pennsylvania. They bring him along to the woods of Pennsylvania.
Walter can't remember what he was doing there 21 years ago.
They notice someone watching them from behind a tree off the side of the road. They head into the woods.
Etta tells her mom about imagining what she was like as she grew up and that Olivia is even better than what she'd hoped.
The group is stopped when they are surrounded by people with guns. They all have black crusty patches all over their skin. Walter worries it's communicable. The group leads them to a sophisticated encampment in the woods. One man frisks Peter and, seeing his revulsion, wipes his crusty hand on Peter's face.
Finally, someone recognizes Walter, then Peter and Olivia. He introduces himself as Edwin, and when Walter hesitates to shake his hand, Edwin tells him they were exposed when they got here. Walter knows he's supposed to retrieve something.
Edwin takes Walter to a subterranean lab. He has to pass through an electromagnetic discharge to enter. Data cubes hold info on every event since the invasion. There are a lot of stories about the Fringe division.
The skin condition is related to the area, but they won't leave because it's where their records are. "We just want to be left alone to record history. No one wants to come here, which is perfect for us," Edwin says.He suggests the Fringe team leave to avoid catching whatever they have.
Walter explains about his forgotten plan. Edwin searches the archives for a record that Walter visited previously.
Edwin's son River, a Fringe buff, shows Olivia the Fringe comic books he made, starring them. He thinks they're heroes for fighting back.
Back at Harvard, Astrid tries to unscramble part of Walter's tape in which he says what to do after they get to Pennsylvania. He says: "You will need to locate a mine."She calls Walter about a mine. Edwin confirms there is an old gold mine nearby.
Back in the city, Captain Windmark gets word that the Fringe group has been spotted in Northern Pennsylvania.
Down in the old mine, Peter and Etta pull something up from a rope in the mine shaft. It's a desiccated body.Walter notices the same bark-like fungus on the dead body. He wonders if the mine might be the source of the ailment and says they can't go further until he runs tests.
A Loyalist guard calls Anil, Etta's Resistance fighter friend, to give him a heads up that Etta has been located.
Etta gives Peter an apple pill, which prompts him to remember fantastic apple pie he and Olivia had at a restaurant in Boston. Even with her total recall memory, Olivia doesn't remember the name.
Walter gets test results on the body, finding the man died of asphyxiation. His body shut down trying to block out the infection, which he was covered in. Walter thinks it comes from something in the mine and the high levels of CO2 the Observers are pumping into the atmosphere. Edwin and his people are far enough away to be affected, but not killed by it.Edwin comes to show Walter an entry in his archives.
Five weeks after the invasion, a man came and went down into the mine. He gathered several rocks with a reddish hue. He was late 30s with reddish hair, his name was Donald. He was taken away by two Observers. Walter can't imagine why he'd want rocks.
Olivia notices a patch of the infection on Walter's hand. Olivia has a spot on her neck. Walter slices the bit off Olivia, for now it's removable.
Edwin brings Walter supplies to make a suit so they can go in the mine. He needs things from the van. Peter and Olivia go. Etta gets a call from Anil.
At the van, Peter asks if he upset Olivia. She remembers the restaurant and remembers him drawing a plan to find Etta. She felt responsible because she loved being a mother but it was at odds with the vision she always had of her future. She felt losing her was punishment for feeling conflicted about Etta. That day at the restaurant was when she decided to go back to New York because she didn't want to find out that Etta was dead. She feels horrible that Peter thought it was because of her strength and Etta just said she admired her.
Peter urges her not to overthink it and take the second chance they've been given to be a family.
Etta comes with news that the Observers are tracking them.
They check on Walter. Edwin is freaked out that the Observers are coming. Walter still needs copper to complete his suit. River suggests he barter with a nearby camp, but Edwin wants them to leave. River is disappointed by his dad.
Peter talks to Edwin, who is worried about dealing with the other camp of "bad people." Peter promises him the rocks in the mine are important.
Edwin radios the other camp, looking for copper.
Out on the road, the Observers approach. They find the Fringe team's tire tracks and follow them. Etta watches them approach.
Edwin talks to River about the differences between cowards and heroes. He knows he has a lot to lose. River hugs him and wishes him good luck.
Back in the lab, Astrid learns from Walter on tape that the mineral he's looking for is a crystallized form of quartz that can be used to create a powerful energy source. He'll explain more in tape 6. They need the energy source for the final phase of the plan. They need at least 40 pounds of the crystals.
Edwin reports that the other camp has 2 pounds of copper. But he decides he can't go. He gives them schematics for their solar technology to barter with. He gives Peter directions to the other camp. Peter and Olivia head off.
The pull into the place on Edwin's hand drawn map, but there's nothing there. They think he never wanted them to find it.
Back at Edwin's camp, he prepares to go into the mine unprotected. Walter and Etta come running when they hear a noise. Another member of Edwin's camp tells them there was no copper.
They find a bucket full of the red rocks they need waiting for them down in the mine. River comes and cries for his dad, realizing what he's done. Edwin sits, frozen in place, at the bottom of the mine. Someone in the camp urges the Fringe team to leave before the Observers find them.
River goes to the archives and leaves an entry for his father. "A hero died today, sacrificing himself in order to get the Fringe team resources they need in order to save our world. Edwin Massey, the recorder of history, made history."
Out on the road, the Fringe van runs smack into the Observers' blockade. The run to inspect the van, but the Fringe team isn't inside. It's stripped empty. The man behind the wheel insists he found the van on the side of the road.
Elsewhere, the Fringe team hot wires a car in a junk yard. Olivia holds onto her daughter, happy to have her back. They head back into the city.

He goes into a…
Description ▼
He goes into a kind of pawn/curio shop and before he can say what he was looking for, an Observer hands him a necklace, saying it will look good on the young blond woman.
The Observer reads his thoughts as Peter focuses on the Red Sox. He hands over too much money and leaves the shop quickly. The Observer tells the others there is something wrong and to detain Peter.
He runs and gets away in a tunnel. He runs when a grenade-like device is thrown is his direction. It explodes and knocks him off his feet.
Peter wakes up lying on the ground with a young boy with a harmonica standing over him. He tells Peter that he came out of a storm drain.
Former Harvard UniversityWalter and Astrid carefully remove another Beta tape from the amber. He's annoyed at how slow the process is.Peter returns looking banged up. He tells Etta the Observer got an image of her from his head. The Observers always seem two steps ahead and Peter worries how they'll beat them. Etta plans to teach them all how to plan a labyrinth of random thoughts to slow the Observers mind reading down. He gives her the necklace to replace the one she gave up.
Captain Winmark plays with a Simon game in the shop, remembering the flashes easily. Broyles joins him. Winmark shows him the surveillance of Peter buying the necklace. He thinks the Resistance is getting information to the Fringe team. Two days ago someone on Broyles' team failed a security check, which has Winmark concerned, especially since Broyles is just now learning about it.
Back at Harvard, they watch Walter's tape 2, which is garbled. He shows plans, like blueprints, that outline the plans to defeat the Observers. He says he plans to hide them where he would his most prized possessions, then segues into a childhood story about "Manhattan Mystery Tours" his mother used to take him on, where they'd go to the station and hop on the first train that came.
The tape cuts out, but Walter knows where the tube is: in the wall of the subway station in Manhattan, which is blockaded by Observer checkpoints.
Walter decides he needs to get at a cabinet in the amber, to get under it. They laser through and he opens a door in the floor.
They head down to find Walter's cold storage of all the Fringe events they ever encountered, from creatures to gadgets. "There was a time when we solved Fringe cases, now I think it's time we created a few of our own," he says.
He never told anyone about it, not even Astrid.
Broyles watches a video feed of an Observer interrogating the guard who failed his security test. He got tripped up answering what the weather was like the day of his graduation from the academy. He cites his graduating class to the Observer, who probes his mind and accuses him of being in the Resistance.
He asks about Peter.
The guard resists the mind-reading until blood trickles from his nose. The Observer finds Anil, the Resistance fighter, in the guard's mind and also reference to "The Dove." Broyles pays close attention as the Observer asks what the Dove's real name is."I don't know, nobody does," the guard says.
Broyles arms his gun and waits for the Observer to report.
It's the third time they've heard the name "the Dove." He knows Anil mentioned a lab in sector B, he thinks Broyles knows it as Harvard. Captain Winmark knows Broyles "had a relationship" with the fugitives. Broyles says it was a long time ago.The Observer leaves and Broyles exhales and takes his hand off his gun.
Back at Harvard, Walter plays with his findings.
Olivia sees Etta restringing her bullet on the necklace chain. She found it in their old house, in Olivia's jewelry box and has been wearing it since she was 13. Peter used to call it "the bullet that saved the world."
Etta gets notice that the lab has been compromised from someone she trusts.
Broyles puts his phone in his pocket.
Etta tries to convince them to leave, but Walter is unwilling to leave the tapes containing the plan. They know if the Observers see they've been there, they'll never be able to get back in. Olivia suggests re-ambering the lab.
Broyles watches video with Captain Winmark of Loyalists busting into the lab and finding it empty and ambered.
Winmark can't believe the reading from the guard about the lab was deceptive. Etta hid her thoughts from them. He wonders if others have access to their readings.
Walter pulls up to an Observer check point to ask for directions. After scanning him, an Observer zaps him with a small taser. Walter quickly puts on a gas mask and sprays something in the faces of the Observer and guard, sealing their faces shut with scar tissue. He and Peter drive through the check point, but Walter is in the system with an apprehend alert.
Peter and Walter go down to the old subway station and Walter remembers where to look. They find the metal tube the plans are in. Olivia and Etta wait in the car up top and put on gas masks when they hear sirens.
Down in the station, Peter shoots the guards who respond. Etta and Olivia shoot canisters of the toxin that seals people's faces shut so they suffocate and guards drop like flies.
Peter and Walter shoot their way out of the station and, wearing masks, rejoin Etta and Olivia above. They get in the car and drive off.
Broyles sits alone in his office. He takes out a worn photo of Peter and Olivia.
Walter looks at the plans, which contain pages of dense physics equations that make no sense to him. Olivia wants to get back to the lab, but Etta says someone wants to see them.
Broyles pulls up. Olivia gives him a big hug. He asked Etta not to tell them in case they were read.
He met Etta for the first time at a crime scene five years ago and had her transferred into his section when he learned who she was. She recruited him into the Resistance and spent a year teaching him how to block his thoughts.
Captain Winmark gets the report of Walter and Peter's efforts. A guard shows him a device one of their men died holding. He thinks they'll be able to find the Fringe team.
Broyles gives his former team a small arsenal, including anti-matter batons with a 100 meter blast radius that can't be disarmed once they're activated.
They close the trunk and see an Observer standing there. Broyles stalls him long enough to shoot him. They see the tracking device on their car.
Broyles tells them to run. Etta gives him the plans and tells him to protect it at all costs. Broyles drives off as the team runs.Winmark and another Observer transport in.
The team runs and Winmark tracks them with teams of guards. They surround the Fringe team in a warehouse and cover every entrance. Obsevers transport in in front of them and the team shoots as they appear.
Etta and Walter get separated from Peter and Olivia, who run upstairs to double back for them.
As Peter and Olivia head for the roof, Etta is separated from Walter. She's looking for him when Winmark appears behind her and knocks her to the ground.
Peter and Olivia find Walter back inside hiding in a crate.
In another area, Winmark lifts Etta to her feet by her throat, choking her. He sees her bullet necklace and asks why Peter bought it for her.
She shuts her eyes and thinks random thoughts of blowing dandelions and her picnic with her parents as a child. Winmark reads "love" in her thoughts.As he puzzles over this, she takes out a dagger and tries to stab him, but he stops her. "You never know when to give up," he says. He steps back and there's the sound of a shot.
Olivia hears it and worries about Etta.Winmark watches as Etta slumps to the ground. He walks away. Peter and Olivia find her, she's shot through the stomach and mortally wounded. Peter tells her they'll move her, but she says she'll slow them down and they have to leave.
Peter looks in her hand to see she's armed an anti-matter baton and it's counting down. Etta hands Olivia the bullet necklace. Peter holds his daughter and cries as Walter says they have to go. The baton counts past 30 seconds.
Outside, Winmark says Peter and Olivia will go back for Etta because of love.
Winmark and other Observers go back inside and see Etta's body slumped against a wall. He sees the necklace is gone and then that the baton has 3 seconds left. He transports outside just in time to see the anti-matter device explode and erase the building.
Olivia holds onto the necklace from a distance as they watch the explosion. Walter gently tells Peter that she's gone and they have to leave.

Later, Olivia looks at a photo of Etta as a child with the woman who raised her.
ManhattanShivers of static electricity appear on buildings and in the street. Observers roll up with Loyalists and start to unload crates. One takes out a cube-shaped machine and turns it on. A portal opens and three large pallets slowly move through and appear in front of them, scorching the earth around them.
Back at Etta's, they prepare to leave. Walter wants to take her perfume to remember her by. Astrid calls from the lab to report she's run into a fire hazard, Walter left a propane tank in the way of the Beta cassette before they ambered the lab. It'll be a few days before she can get to the next cassette.
Anil calls Etta's phone, wanting to meet.
Anil meets Olivia, Walter and Peter at the scorched earth spot in Manhattan. They think it's from a wormhole from the future and the parts are to build the air degredation system. The Resistance wants to destroy the next shipment when it comes, but they can't read the Observer's language.Anil gives Olivia a book with characters in it and shows her video of the Observer they captured and took it from. They have the cube.Peter wants to try to use the cube to destroy the entire wormhole. Walter thinks it's too risky.
"Before you go on a journey of revenge, dig two graves," Anil warns Peter. But Peter's not worried about himself, he just wants to defeat the Observers.
Later, Peter works on the cube but it zaps him as he takes it apart. Back at the lab, Astrid puts the Observer's notebook through a decryption program. Olivia is trying to keep distracted from thinking about Etta.Astrid realizes each of their symbols could stand for more than one thing, she wants to run multiple decryption programs at once and needs more computing power.
Walter checks on Peter, who reports the cube is packing a ton of power. Walter thinks he knows how to destroy the shipping corridor, but it's very dangerous.Walter shows Peter a model of the future to explain his idea to turn the wormhole into a blackhole that is closed on their end and will back up in the future.They'd have to throw in an anti-matter baton, but they'd have to get to the wormhole with the cube before the Observers. Peter wants to force the Observer to help them.
As Peter packs up, Olivia tries to get Peter to slow down, reminding him they also have Walter's plan. "But what do we have? Pieces we don't know how to put together, a scroll with physics we can't decipher, a thought unifer that doesn't work and a box of rocks from a mine. That's what our daughter died for so far," Peter says.
Olivia tells him she's afraid, but he assures her he can do this. He wants everyone to know Etta helped save the world. Walter listens to their conversation.Peter leaves the lab and joins Anil with the unconscious Observer. Anil explains the Observer's abilities are aided by tech.He wakes the Observer up and leaves him with Peter.
Peter takes out the cube, explaining to the Observer that he's going to help him figure out how to use it. The Observer doesn't understand why Peter would think can get him to cooperate when the others couldn't. "You don't even know what you don't know," the Observer says."We'll see," says Peter.
Peter sets a tiny camera up very close to the Observer's eye and studies his micro reactions as he picks up pieces of the cube and puts them together.The Observer compares humans to ants. "You think the black over your head is dark skies, but it is really our shoe," he says.Peter continues putting the cube together, the pieces fitting perfectly in the right order.
Walter comes to Olivia in the lab with tape of one of Etta's birthdays. "It will be incredibly difficult for you to watch, but I believe it's important for you and Peter to see it," he says.Walter tells her what he overheard and knows she meant she was afraid for her relationship with Peter. Walter tells them they have to face their pain together."I have experience with this kind of pain, and you can't escape it by building walls around your heart. Or by breaking the universe, or by vengeance," Walter says. "You lost each other once, but you have another chance."Olivia refuses to watch the tape.
Astrid announces they decoded the book, it is a shipping manifest and the next shipment is this afternoon.
Back with the Observer, Peter knows if he attaches the next piece incorrectly, they'll be obliterated. He watches the Observer's reactions as he holds it over the four placement options. Although the Observer says he doesn't care if he dies, Peter says he still has human-based subconscious reactions that he can't control.He watches the Observer's pupils as they expand and contract and puts the piece in the right place. He continues. Olivia calls to tell him where the corridor will be opening. Peter puts the last piece in the cube and it turns on.
At the location, static electricity is already appearing and Observers are setting up a cube. Anil sets theirs up in the road. Peter aims the anti-matter baton from building.The Observers notice the corridor open across the street from them and realize something is wrong.
Before Peter can fire from his perch, and Observer appears behind him and kicks him across the room. He kicks Olivia over as she takes aim. The Observer stands over Peter and raises his shoe over him, about the crush the ant.But Olivia stands up behind him with the gun and shoots the Observer.
Peter aims the anti-matter baton into the corridor and hits it. It closes, its contents being sucked back in.They get in the van and are driving off in a celebratory mood when Anil checks the review mirror. They stop and look down the street. Another shipment is arriving through another corridor.
Peter calls Walter for an explanation, but he's stumped. Peter stalks off "to get answers."Olivia looks at the alley where she's standing and sees signs with Etta's face on them saying "Resist."
Peter charges in on the captive Observer and holds plastic over his face.When he asks why it didn't work, the Observer again tells him he doesn't even know what he doesn't know. And that Anil was right about digging two graves before a journey of revenge.
The Observer explains he was watching a fly on the wall and that made his pupil dilate. "You ascribed meaning to something that was not there," he says. He says Peter put the device together from his experience as an engineer and just needed his reactions to build confidence.Whether they caused Etta's death is irrelevant, the Observer says, because she was here and now she is not. "You are nothing but tech, I would be ten times what you are if I had that tech in my head," Peter says, before he knocks the Observer out.
Back in the lab, Olivia contemplates the birthday tape. She puts it in.
Meanwhile, Peter picks up surgical tools and slices the Observer's neck open, comparing the pain to the pain a father feels when he loses a child. Peter removes a small processor as the Observer dies.
Olivia watches the tape of her with Peter and very young Etta. They're all very happy.
Peter slices into the back of his neck and inserts the processor, which leaps to his skin and climbs up to his brain, giving him the mother of all headaches. Olivia calls in tears as the tape plays, asking him to come home. "Etta would want us to be together, she would want us to survive this. I love you," she says.
Peter says he loves her but has to get off the phone as something strong comes over him.
