Mark Watches ‘Fringe’: S03E12 – Concentrate and Ask Again

LIVEBLOG PARTY! We’re going to be watching the twelfth episode of the third season of Fringe. OLIVIA. IN A DRESS. BLUE STUFF. Hell yeah, SO EXCITED.

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 “Concentrate and Ask Again” floating around the ‘Net (WHICH I HAVE AVOIDED TYVM), so please, DO NOT POST THEM HERE.

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.

SOUND FINE? OMG there better be more Astrid this week WHEN IS OUR ASTRID-CENTRIC EPISODE GOING TO HAPPEN.

  51. Hotaru-hime says:

  52. ldwy says:

    BOWLING ALLEY SAM WEISS OMG OMG OMG

    PETER HAS TO CHOOSE OLIVIA'S FOR THE FATE OF THE WORLD????? THAT'S CRAZY.

    AND I AM SCARED THAT HIS LAST COMMENT MIGHT SUPPORT THE FAUXLIVIA BABY THEORY. 🙁 DO NOT WANT.

  53. Liana Moreli says:

    OMG

    OH NOES

    He still loves her..the fauxlivia

  54. ldwy says:

    Also, I am not sure how I'm going to be able to watch next weeks episode.

  55. ohyoda says:

    WHY PETER? WHY?

    Also what was the word? I thought it was HATCH but my mom yelled at me and told me this isn't Lost

  56. psycicflower says:

    Oh god, I just *flails*

  57. Hotaru-hime says:

    Was the word "HATCH" Cause I got H-A-?-C-H

  58. Liana Moreli says:

    • astridaction says:

      NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Peter

    • Mel says:

      Our ASTRID will die.
      We don't want the emotionless maths-genius!Astrid, no matter how cool the beret is. ):

      And Walter. Oh Walter. I would cry forever if we lost him and were stuck with Walternate.

  59. __Jen__ says:

    Lol rewatching already, but how did I miss Olivia's "She's like me, but better."? Sadface forever! 🙁

  60. FrozenHeads says:

    1) Why is Olivia talking Feelings with Nina? It feels a bit forced.

    2) That bacteria must have been sent by Dobby. Maybe he was trying to save the guy's life.

    3) I take it Olivia doesn't like milk in he coffee? Or was is the lack of sugar? Or the fact that Peter almost died from drinking milk last episode? I'm CONFUSED.

  61. astridaction says:

    This episode broke my heart, made me feel all warm inside and that everything was right in the world with Peter's speeches, then sucker punched me at the end. whyyyyy fringe whyyyyy. Olivia's acting this episode was very strong again. Please dear god don't let fauxlivia be pregnant

  62. FrozenHeads says:

    It makes sense that Simon wouldn't be able to read Olivia's mind, since Nick Lane didn't affect Olivia emotionally, either.

  63. Hotaru-hime says:

    I wonder what happened to Olivia's step-dad, the one who would send her creepy cards every year?

    • FrozenHeads says:

      Yeah, they haven't mentioned him again, have they? I guess he's not a part of the main story arc so he's being left behind. I think he probably was introduced only to explain Olivia's tragic past.

    • bookling says:

      I hope this isn't too spoilery, but I read that they're casting him, so he must be coming back into Olivia's life in some capacity.

  64. xpanasonicyouthx says:
