Fox Mulder at the airport, 1997: flashes his badge and gets a private escort to a different terminal. Metal detector goes off when he passes through it while carrying two pistols and talking on his cell phone? No problem, flashes his badge and the airport guy lets him take a peek at his X-ray. (The X-Files, Season 4, episode 18: Max)

Olivia Dunham at the airport, 2012: Tries to stop bad guy, gets stopped by TSA. Flashes her badge, is a terrorist.

Whoever wrote the script clearly had a bad experience at an airport, making TSA a secondary antagonist

   When Peter came back, he was thrust into yet another universe, this episode pretty much confirmed that it's a 3rd universe with everything that was occuring.
Then the alt universe that exists in this universe is a 4th universe.
Yes, it can get a bit confusing with all of these universes but that's how alternate realities would work if they existed.   

   I disagree, I believe there are 5 - not 4.
Universe/Timeline 1 is the 'main universe' and is from season one.
Universe/Timeline 2 was featured heavily in season 2 and three.
Universe/Timeline 3 is created when Peter creates a bridge between Universes 1 and 2, merging them together at the end of season three and pushing him out of existence.
Universe/Timeline 4 is the one that Peter is thrown into, being the main focus of season 4.
Universe/Timeline 5 is the alternate version of 4. (the universe where Walternate is actually good)   

[The_Marine]

   I think we can rule out 3 since it's technically not a new universe, it's just Universe 1 with the second one merged into it.   

[Ezhik]

   So it's easier to have them as
Timeline 1 - Universe 1 (Normal Fringe)
Timeline 1 - Universe 2 (Alt Universe)
Timeline 2 - Universe 1 (No Peter)
Timeline 2 - Universe 2 (Alt Universe w/o Peter)

Though the universes in timeline 2 may be a single universe, as each universe usually has a unique intro - Normal one has blue, Alt one has red, but all of season 4 episodes have been amber.

    Yeah and when that happened it created a brand new timeline, one without Peter - so it's safe to say in Universe 3, Peter never existed.

    There are 6 different intros

One starts red and then goes blue (Both Universes) , Grey (Future) , Orange/Amber (Season 4)
Retro (1985) , Red (alternative) , Blue (Old main Universe) - Easy to google.   

[The_Marine]

Okay so then technically there's still only 4 universes since the Retro scenes count towards our universe.
Though, you could probably discount the future too since I doubt that's going to be making a come back.

I'm unsure as to why you even brought up the intros.

[Swebonny]

Correct? Picture is a bit spoilery.

[Swebonny]

omg Olivia Dunham from universe 63

[The_Marine]

Ew, long johns.

[blooregardo]

I want to-- oh the things I want to do to her.

Also, this thread should be subtitled "Fringe thread v.1 - oh god everything is spoilers"

Fringe v1 - In my universe, we've already witnessed those spoilers.

[Ezhik]

God damn it, can we just drop spoilers?
It's a bitch to read anything in this thread :c

[EliteGuy]

The show is probably getting cancelled

D:

[sp00ks]

can't say i'm surprised
this season has so far been of no importance to the overall story
they're just trying to get back to status quo

[The_Marine]

It's pretty much been on cancellation watch since Season 2.

I'll be sad to see it go especially considering how much they dropped the ball for this season, I mean it's been almost nothing but standalones.

If it does get renewed, I hope it's a shortened 13 ep season so that they can focus on telling the god damned story.

[Swebonny]

Please no, I love Fringe.

Edited:

If they do cancel, I hope they are able to wrap up the story nicely.

[The_Marine]

That was a great episode.
Peter and Olivia moments abound.

Now then, next week's episode.
HOLY.
FUCKING.
SHIT.

Aside from fringe, this is my favorite Anna Torv performance:

I personally thought she had a great (albeit small part) in The Pacific.

[Ezhik]

WHAT.

The ending... WHAT THE FUCK?

[Marlamin]

oh man

OH MAN THIS SHOW

[VistaPOWA]

I... I...

The ending has left me brainfucked.

[Marlamin]

   shapeshifters    man    SHAPESHIFTERS   

[Ezhik]

   Nina was actually bad was actually good was actually bad was actually good ALL ALONG!   

[Birdman101]

Good.     I was really pissed at nina, now I dont have to be. Now, I'll predict that they will end up finding out because of something about nina's cyborg arm.   

   wait, does this mean olivia was a shapeshifter too?   

[Ezhik]

   No, but the next time anyone sees her, she will be. Though.. If Jones is under Faux-Nina's command, who the fuck is controlling Faux-Nina?

   I don't think so because I think she was just then kidnapped in the prior scene at the gas station.   

[Ezhik]

   Though now we need to make sure that nothing bad happens to Walter and Lincoln. Also I like how Walter just drank the fake Cortexsiphan and figured out what it actually was   

[VistaPOWA]

   Maybe they needed Nina only to get the Cortexiphan to drug Olivia, because they need information about the 1st universe?   

[Birdman101]

Eh, they can kill lincoln.

   How the fuck did alt-timeline Olivia even get memories of normal Olivia?

   I've kind of been thinking lately that it isn't an alternate timeline, but that the one he was in was directly modified. Peter was supposed to die originally, but the observer saved him.

   Yeah it kinda feels like the new timeline has managed to fade back into the original. Even one of the Observers said Peter was 'back.'

Standard TV series/movies peace before the storm.

[Over-Run]

Fuck I've only watched up to episode 8 of this season. From everybody's reactions I can tell that it's gotten amazing?

Yeah, I actually think the fourth series started out weaker than the rest - but it's back on track now and as awesome as Fringe should be.
