It’s Friday and that means it’s time for us to all watch (and freak out) over a new episode of Fringe! This week’s episode is a flashback-heavy story and is a sequel of sorts to season two’s “Peter.” Are you excite? EXCITE.
It was nice to see a few new faces last week, so tell your friends to join in on the party for “Subject 13.”
Because we are all on the exact same ground this time around, our spoiler policy for these blogs will be completely different. Anything that has aired in the past is fair game for discussion. Anything that has not publicly aired WILL BE CONSIDERED A SPOILER. I know there are spoilers for “Subject 13†floating around the ‘Net (WHICH I HAVE AVOIDED TYVM), so please, DO NOT POST THEM HERE. I know that this episode in particular has COMPLETE SPOILERS out there, so please be courteous to other viewers and keep them to yourself.
This liveblog will work in relative to when the episode airs for you. So, you may begin your livebloggy commenting down below when the episode starts. To avoid spoilers, I stick to the first page and comment away, and then go back afterwards to add any more.
PARTY TIME IN LESS THAN ELEVEN HOURS! Well, for me, that is.
Hoping for the amazing credits again tonight. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tjua7n0n2SM (God damn youtube embedding)
I have to say I love live blogging Fringe here. My sister is only an episode away from the series 2 finale and it is killing me not being able to talk about the show with her. It's great to be able to flail with everyone else here.
I love the 80s varation with its 8bit music track and the fact that instead of stuff like psychokinesis, dark matter, precognition, and artificial intelligence, "fringe science" is stuff like cloning, DNA profiling, personal computing, genetic engineering, etc. etc. Really puts things into perspective, aha.
I'm not going to be able to liveblog tonight! I have to WORK! I haz a sad.
Aw, you'll definitely be missed. No chance you can watch with the West Coasters?
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I KNOW I AM SO EXCITED. I am following all of them!
THAT HAIR. Very excited for tonight's episode! My power had better not be flickering like it was this morning…
Fringe's ratings were up again last week! Yay!
HERE I COME LIVEBLOG. It is almost time!!!
Five more minutes!!!
Finally finished Ashes to Ashes to pass the time until Fringe starts. I don't think I've been so emotional about a tv show since Lost ended.
IT'S STARTING!!!!!!!
Ugh. Kitchen nightmares preview.
IT'S STARTING YESS.
IT IS STARTING!
Here we go!
Yes Peter walk out on the probably melting lake. That's smart,
OH MY GOD. Let's not ease into anything, apparently. JESUS.
Jesus!
HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT
Poor Peter!!
YES RETRO THEME FOR THE WIN!!!!!!!
😀 old fashioned title thing!
Woot! It's 80s credits!
Hello cortexiphan children. I love you all.
Thank you, awesome 80's intro, for the two seconds to breathe.
Oh god, I love Orla Brady.
Olivia and the Empath guy.
Why was Olivia staring after him all meaningfully?
I also love the 80's intro.
Red Lantern instead of Green. How strange.
Poor Peter.
I bet it would be the weird little insignificant things that freaked me out the most.
I know he's carrying out experiments on them and it's terrible, but Walter is so good with children.
FRINGE LIVE BLOG WOOT!
So Walter made the second Cortexiphan trial to get Peter home?
I wish Elizabeth would be around all the time. i love her classy british accent. and curly hair, even if that seems weird.
I love her curly hair, and I covet it in the worst possible way.
Ditto. Her hair is distractingly lovely.
I can't be the only one here who was introduced to her in The Magical Legend of the Leprechauns right? Right? If anywhere in the world I will find fellow fans, I believe it's here. That movie is ridiculous, but I love it.
OMG YES!!! is that her?!!! i never put that together and now i am EVEN MORE OBSESSED WITH HER. i still have that cringe-worthy but wonderful miniseries on good old VHS tape. i knew there was a reason i loved her so much! thank you for reminding me!
Yes, that's her. I HAVE IT ON A TAPED OFF TV VHS TOO! It's missing like the first 10 minutes or so. But I still watch it. I think my sister just got it on DVD.
i can still sing the song at the end of the movie during the wedding/end credits. just FYI. hahaha.
Hahahaha, love that song.
I will have a secret crush on Mickey Muldoon for the rest of my life.
<img src="http://vivi.kepeslap.com/images/3233/mickey.jpg" />
I should point out that she actually has an Irish accent.
touche. i should know this, since i saw her in The Magical Legend of the Leprechauns.
touche. i should know this, having seen her in the Magical Legend of the Leprechauns.
Poor Elizabeth Bishop. To lose a son and then to gain him but to not really have him. How tragic.
Poor Elizabeth. You can sometimes forget how hard this is/was on her as well.
Evil stepfather!!!
OH MY GOD SHE CROSSED OVER!!!
Orla, why you so pretty. Why can't I look like you?
<img src="http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d22/carma_bee/FRINGEGlyphs.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket">
OH NO Olivia has a scary dad…
Whoa what happened? She managed to escape a little? But couldn't stay away?
OMG Olivia is like Harry Potter!! she uses her powers without actually trying when she feels threatened!! YESSSSS!!!
Hahahahaha, HARRY POTTER YOU ARE EVERYWHERE.
OMG, do you think when Harry was being chased by Dudley and he ended up on the roof, that it was really the roof in an alternate universe?
most likely. =)
First letter is S!
Aaaugh I missed the beginning. Sigh.
Yellow. Yellowyellowyellow. Red and green. I am starting to see the connections.
SCRAMBLED EGGS.
I bet he wants bacon.
poor tramatized child peter 🙁
This kid is making me so sad:(
Aw, bless little Peter and thinking the other world is at the bottom of the lake.
This conversation between Peter and his Mom is so sad.
What are you going to do Walter!?
All of the sad. Olive. 🙁
Poor Olivia! Her life is full of tragedy!
Little Olivia staying in by her lonesome 🙁 Prick of a Dad.
Zeppelin! Ultimate indication of another universe.
Oh god, all the sad children in this episode. Poor poor Peter. And Olivia is abused???
Zeppelin!
Peter wants to go back! Poor thing.
That was a Webkinz. Fail.
Battlestar Galactica! 😀
Rubik's cuuuuube!
Elizabeth, please, Altverse has cell phones. Your puny video games mean nothing.
Fascinated by planes, though.
Haha, I remember Joust! My big brother used to make me play all the time. He always won, and it always sucked. Good for you for walking away from that shit, Peter!
Aw Peter and Elizabeth bonding.
Emotional responses are coming into play again!!! YES.
First Meeting!! Love at first sight!
all this back story is captivating!!!
PETER AND OLIVIA MEET AT LAST.
Aww, looks like he likes her already.
The beguiling Olivia Dunham beguiles.
Next letter's a W
Second letter is W!
S-W
I predict it will be…..SWITCH?? That's my guess.
Ooooh, it could be!
that’s what I was thinking too!
My new Beta-Max.
Love..
I really hate that Dr. Pepper ad.
I wish Leonard Nimoy hadn't retired and could be in this episode.
BETAMAX
LOL, Betamax!
Olivia is subject thirteen.
Remind me…is Bell already on the other side at this point?? Or no.
Not yet. I think he's at the other Cortexiphan trial.
Ah, right. This is the second. Thanks 🙂
Aw, Walter being so good with Olivia.
Or probably not for long given the response he needs to get out of her.
First, make her happy. Second, tire her out. Third, devastate her.
He's so good with kids! I love it!
He's being mean now because he wants her upset, right?
Ah yes, "anger isn't the answer"
Oh no. It's going to be fear.
You have to inspire fear.
Poor bb Olivia.
Hahaha she broke it.
…….um isn't it obvious it was going to be fear; she got a black eye before she went to the other world
Hahahaha, he's going to induce fear with Jaws! Classic Walter.
I just keep wanting to say Aw.
this makes me feel so bad for Olivia jesus christ
Oh no, poor Olivia. JESUS! That is horrible.
Poor Olive.
HOLY SHIT!
S-W-I
Was that dead Frodo?????
My guess is SWING for the word?
Peter and Olivia are going to sit on the swings!
D: I’m glad we have our walter.
Agreed. WTF Walter?
that's just sick. i knew this was going somewhere bad, but i didnt think he'd do it with a dead body or whatever the H that was.
Man, look at that old ass phone.
Oh I'm glad that boy is okay.
It's so cute that baby Peter loves planes.
Is it because they're rarer in Altverse? Since they've got zeppelins?
Okay, not a hobbit, a little boy.
I was close?? Oops.
I wonder how the other kid isn't damaged.
I'm guessing it's an instinct thing since she doesn't harm herself in the process.
Olivia's gone missing. In our or altverse?
But you know, doesn't this go against that one video they showed earlier in the series?
OH MY GOD HE SEES THE DRAWING
He knows it's not a lie!
Ah, is he going to see images from his world in her sketchbook!
Olivia's drawings 🙁
Ugh, scary…her dad?
flowers…the meadow where she escaped to for a moment?
How awful- a combination of love and terror…
MORAL DILEMMA
Okay, so the altverse doesn't have peanut m&m's? Our universe is automatically better.
I don't think I could survive. Does that mean they have a peanut shortage? Do Snickers not exist!?
Without peanut butter, I would die.
No peanut M&Ms, no wool.
What a loser universe.
