Again, I’m in a rush and forgot about this. I unfortunately will miss it because I’ll be on a plane to Pittsburgh, BUT LIVEBLOG AWAY.
OH GOD I CAN’T HANDLE THIS SEASON. SO GOOD.

RRRRRRRRRR
IT'S HENRY
HENRY HOW?!?!?
Will this Olivia get some Fauxlivia memories too? Will alt-Fauxlivia get some Fauxlivia memories?
I don't even know what to do with that.
Neither did the writers last season.
Seriously, what does it mean? I mean, I remember that AltLivia named her and Peter's kid Henry, but WHAT DOES HE HAVE TO DO WITH ANYTHING? Will we get answers next week?
Oh, shit, what if September is Henry?
So it's been 2 weeks since the glyph code was EMPATH. Does that mean it'll be the episode after next before we get to the little nugget again?
Ha, maybe. They've gotta remind us that he happened somehow. Honestly, I thought that EMPATH could apply to Astrid and alt-Astrid because they're the hearts of their groups, and that alt-Astrid in particular was really sensitive to the people around her. But then it also worked for the more psychic meaning in this episode!
"I'm not afraid."
Oh, my heart. Damn.
Not gonna lie. I love The Rock. (I'm still not gonna see "Journey 2" though.)
nothing about the gay marriage bill? screw you, local news promo
Aw, Astrid, you are just lovely.
Aw, I love this kid. He's having such a hard time, and he seems really sweet and Astrid is really good with him. Why were they serial killers and he wasn't?
Olivia, stop being akwardly adorable!
thank you for realizing that, peter
SO TRUE PETER, BE SMART ABOUT THIS
Or whatever. That's cool too.
aggggggggggh, this cannot backfire or I will be so upset, but YAY
I can't decide if I am happy about this or upset.
…
at a gas station? that's never a good idea
love the design of their secret vault
OH MY GOD WHAT IF ALTNINA HAS BEEN GIVING OLIVIA CORTEXIHPAN
Everyone else has brought this up already, haven't they, and I just haven't been paying attention?
Nope, well, the idea of Alt!Nina took me by surprise at lease, and I feel so silly that I didn't figure it out sooner, I mean, SERIOUSLY, this whole show is about dopplegangers in a way.
And this is probably half the reason the showrunners have held off on showing any AltNinas up to now, so that our minds wouldn't instantly make the connection. SNEAKY, SNEAKY.
It didn't even occur to me until the thing with the hand scanner.
I just read an article on TVLine that wasn't really spoilery, but they had a theory, kind of. Gurl fnvq, "Naq ab fbbare unq fur qhpxrq vagb gur svyyvat fgngvba ybb guna fur qvfnccrnerq — naq yngre erfhesnprq pncgvir va n qnax ebbz, va gur pbzcnal bs (qehzebyy) gur erny Avan, pbasvezvat gung gur ZQ obff ynql jub gevrq gb cnff snhk Pbegrkvcuna bss ba Jnygre vf rvgure bar bs QEW’f funcrfuvsgref (be na rivy nyg-Avan)."

AGH, WHY DIDN'T I THINK OF THAT? I like this theory.
HMMMMMM, yes, I enjoy this theory. Now I have no idea what to believe. This showwwwwww.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING
Oh Walter, I love you.
I keep expecting someone to sneak up behind them to get olivia :/
"haha i mess up your life!"
I love Kennedy's stern face.
no…
OMG OLIVIA DID YOU CROSS OVER?!?!?
Where have you gone Olivia!!!????
Did she jump over?
DAMMIT SHOW, STOP DOING THIS TO MY SHIP
OUR SHIP WILL SURVIVE, DAMMIT
YEAH, BUT THEY'LL MAKE US SUFFER FOR IT.
Well, yeah. We should stock up on wine, cookies, and tissues now.
I'm going straight to the whiskey.
I started with whiskey :/
p.s. Rye cocktails rule the world.

Best. Macro. Ever.
But they enjoy our suffering so much!
SLUSHO SLUSHO SLUSHO!

OH MY GOOOOOOOD, tell me you watch Le Visiteur Du Futur too!
YES YES YESSSSSSSSS OH MY GOD IT IS THE GREATEST!!!!!!!!!!!
It is the most greatest of the things. More people need to watch it though, it deserves such a huge audience.
For real. It's so clever and well written and hilarious and ugh I do not understand why everybody in the world is not watching it. I mean, Florent Dorin's face. Come on.
shit shit shit
WHAAAAAAT??????
WHAT???? Okay, so it is another Nina???
which nina is which
HENRY
So did jones backstab nina?
or nina is manipulating olivia? i don't want nina to be outwitted.
FRINGE YOU BASTARDS!
SECONDED
AHHHHHHHHH OBSERVERS
Ahhhh! I knew it! I knew we'd been seeing the wrong Nina!
I feel bad for yelling at her for betraying Olivia.
Oh my god, next week looks intense!
And then hiatus after that? This is torture. Fringe should be on 7 days a week.
Oh no. I didn't know about hiatus!
Next episode is 2/24, then the one after that is 3/23, according to Wikipedia, which is 100% accurate at all times.
This is the first time I've ever been happy for a haitus. I'll be on vacation March 1 – 10 and was going to miss two weeks. Now, I'm going to come back to a live blog never having missed a moment of Mark.
Being on vacation and missing reviews/liveblogs is the worst! Except for the part about being on vacation, which is the best. I'm glad the hiatus has lined up so nicely for you. 🙂
A month break? OH F>>>>THAT!! BOO YOU FOX BOOO YOU!!!
Haha, great. It'll be back on at the same time as the Sweet Sixteen. Fringe's ratings should be interesting.
Fringe's ratings are a forbidden topic. In my reality, Fringe is never at risk for being cancelled.
I'm definitely willing to tear a hole in the fabric of the universe to live in that reality.
New theory! DRJ is just trying to get to a universe where his favorite shows were never cancelled.
Well now I have a lot more sympathy for him!
Aaah!! JUST THIS VERY SUNDAY, I was saying that I want the show to be renewed for one final season so they can wrap everything up like WHO THE FUCK THE OBSERVERS ARE…and apparently THE WAIT IS OVER EEEEEE.

Okay. I think I've got my head back. Good one, Fringles!
Time to marathon some Parks & Rec to cleanse the palate.
Last night's was the first I didn't like in a long time 🙁
Yeah, it was a little off. Maybe they forgot how to write Dave/CK? Hopefully just a minor blip, and they'll be back to form next week.
I don't think they forgot, I think they deliberately wrote him as a jerk so that he would be a non-entity now that CK is off doing his own thing. It was just sooo not Dave. I'm sure it'll be better next week, though.
Can I just say how much Olivia's lovestruck look kills me?
OK! Got my french fries, my mocha milkshake…..LETS DO THIS
Heeeyyy, another "S"
man, what is happening to Olivia?
Guuuh, freaking scary
I'm here with you LucyGoosey. Just got home from work. Just watched the first few minutes and I'm caught up.
Freaking home invasions…..my worst nightmare
I just enjoy Lincoln.
Walter 🙂
What's wrong with Olivia :/
She's being haunted by herself!
Hmm, voices that only talk to each other….from what I've read schizophrenia is rarely that mellow
Walter's fabulous beard 😀
WALTER!
her flashes have Peter's pea coat 🙂
WTH is going on??!! I'm so lost…..
WTF Olivia knows this house.
How weird must it be to have all these memories coming through over another group of memories
She looks so happy.
gahhhhh
H
OH MY HEART, it's breaking because Olivia is so happy and Peter is confused.
🙁
Other side of SF bay
And yet again, Olivia hooked up to brain machines
Awww. Peter's scared for Olivia.
"old dream" = WMG fuel
OH MY HEART, it's breaking because Olivia is so happy and Peter is confused.
Did you see her face when he mentioned children from abused households? Sad.
Peter's stress level is stressing me out.
Dammit, Walter don't make him feel worse
Astrid you are flawless
H-E
kte? Lucy? Did I lose you both?
nothing i post is actually posting…
My comments keep getting filtered- they should show up once approved
My posts aren't going through. Is there an issue?
I doubt anyone is reading this now, but yes, the spam filter has been wonky and comments from people who don't have IntenseDebate accounts are getting sent to moderation.
D: Its just not Fringe unless its breaking our hearts
Walter is giving Peter the stink eye. He does not approve.
Yup, this is the Adams/Eves all over again
NINA!!!!
NINA WHAT DID YOU DO
H-E-M
dammit Nina, I bet it is related to the injections she has been giving Olivia… but why?
Ok, I'm starting to see other people's posts again. I was beginning to think I'd been dropped into another universe where I was the only West Coast live blogger!
And my husband is bald and looks suspiciously like an observer!
Hey, this is pretty much the only liveblog I've ever ran into that has an active West Coast at all
are things blue or red?
Wait, no, H-E-N
Nina is a bad, bad girl.
I miss Lincoln's old glasses.
And yet again, my heart goes "squish"
H-E-N-R
I really didn't feel sad over that death. No, not at all sad.
Papa was the link?
Can Astrid be my BFF?
Olivia is so awesome
Good boy Peter, cautious but owning up to what happened
They are breaking my heart.
oh so many conflicted feelings
The episode when he knew by looking at the eyes that it wasn't his girl. Oh my, this is a great episode.
Walter is drinking the drugs.
No, no, no, no, no. Do not let anything happen to Olivia!!!
oh fuck
Goddammit, I should know to brace myself with this show by now :/
NINA!!!! What is going on! WTF is going on!?!?!?
