The final episode of the penultimate season of Fringe. The universes are safe (again).
The Plot: Peter and Olivia head back to Walter’s lab only to find Walter and Astrid missing. Soon after they arrive, Olivia receives a phone call from one of the victims she saved last week from the nanite attack. She tells Olivia she thinks she is being watched. Olivia agrees to head right over. It turns out that she is being watched, by September the Observer, but he falls prey to a second level cleric spell and is trapped.
Olivia and Peter arrive to find an empty house and a strange hole in the floor. Broyles calls and tells them Astrid is in the hospital, recovering from a gunshot wound. They rush to the hospital and learn about the warehouse where Walter was last seen. Peter and Olivia head to the warehouse and find September, still trapped. The woman Olivia helped last episode steps out of the shadows, holding a pistol. She makes it clear that is working for William Bell and her job is to get Olivia riled up. She shoots September, but due to his “super Observer speed,” he is able to catch the bullets. She then pulls out a special pistol, designed by Bell, which can shoot so fast the Observer can’t catch the bullets. She fires a shot, and sure enough, September is hit in the chest. She fires three more shots but Olivia catches them and throws them back at her, killing her. Of course, in the Fringe universe, no one stays dead forever, especially when they hold the clue to Walter’s location, so she is brought back to the Harvard lab, hooked up to a machine, and dragged back to life, temporarily at least.
The Fringe team learns that William and Walter Bell are on barge, presumably heading for the safe zone where the two universes will collide. They find the boat, but only Peter (and the satellites, apparently) can actually see it, because it is out of sync with our universe. Peter and Olivia (acting on their own, again), jump to the barge and confront William Bell. He tells them that Olivia’s powers are energizing the collision of the universes, and once begun, there is no way to stop it. Walter disagrees, then pulls out a pistol and shoots Olivia right in the brain, killing her. Without the required power, the universes immediately return to normal. Bell disappears (literally).
Walter rushes to Olivia, reminding Peter of what we only learned last episode, that Cortexiphan has healing powers. Using improvised surgical tools, he pushes the bullet out of Olivia’s brain, and miraculously, her wound heals.
As the episode ends, Congress increases Fringe’s funding, allowing them to add their own science department – a department which the now “General” Broyles asks Nina Sharp to head. Olivia is released from the hospital, but not before telling Peter that she’s pregnant. Meanwhile, September appears to Walter, telling him to warn the others about what is coming.
1. I’ve Heard Of Soft Spots, But This Is Ridiculous
Skulls must be softer in the Fringe universe, because there’s no way a syringe, let along a letter opener, would be able to break through the skull that easily – if at all.
2. Just Ask Penn & Teller
The trick to catching a bullet is not just being fast enough to intercept it, but somehow arresting all its momentum without taking any damage. Super speed may solve problem number one, but not number two.
3. In A Case, Just In Case
That was one of the more blatant examples of Chekov’s Gun I’ve seen in recent memory.
4. Khaaaan!
I couldn’t help flashing back to Start Trek II and the Genesis device in the beginning of this episode, when William Bell was talking about how God created the universe in seven days but it took him [Bell] considerably longer. There is a similar quote in Star Trek II (only it takes them seven hours, not seven days).
5. ParadoxodaraP
A nice time paradox. When September told Olivia that in every universe she has to die, where did he learn this? From Olivia.
Another good episode, but I have the feeling it could have been better. This two-part finale would have worked better a three-episode arc, so some of the key points wouldn’t feel quite so shoe-horned. Still, a good season overall, even if Charlie is still AWOL. The Fringe Doomsday Clock creeps back to 11:55.

Better late than never. The Fringe team has their final confrontation with David Robert Jones and learns the identity of the real mastermind in an entertaining, albeit fairly cluttered, episode.
The Plot: The Fringe Team is called in to evaluate a cluster of cases of spontaneous combustion at a nearby convention center. Walter initially suspects a viral infection, but when he realizes the infection was caught from the handrail on the escalator and locates the source, he determines the victims have actually been infected with nanites. Video surveillance shows that David Robert Jones planted the nanites in the escalator, but after looking over the nanites, Walter recognizes them as the work of William Bell.
In this universe, William Bell died in a car crash seven years before, but Walter is insistent that Bell must still be alive and tells the rest of the team that William visited him at St. Claire’s Hospital after he was supposed to be dead. A visit to the hospital shows no evidence of Bell visiting, but Walter keeps the sign-in log for good measure.
The viewers quickly realize that Walter is right and William Bell is still alive, and the Jones is working for him. After some clumsy metaphors about chess, Bell tells Jones that it is time to take out the Bishop. Soon, a bright powerful beam of light comes down from the sky, burning everything in its path. Walter and Peter realize that it is caused by satellites reflecting the sun’s rays and Walter is able to track down the source of the transmission controlling the satellite. Peter and Olivia head off to the transmission sight – antennas on two nearby buildings. They each climb to the roof of one building and shut down the transmitters, but Peter is jumped by Jones. Olivia is able to use her Cortexiphan abilities to take control of Peter’s body and beat Jones senseless. Jones then disintegrates into powder, remarking that he was the Bishop being taken off the board.
Back in his lab, Walter, with help from Astrid, cow’s brains, and an EZ Bake oven, determine that Bell did visit the asylum, leaving behind a trace of his favorite snack – almonds – on the sign-in log. Walter and Astrid head off to the almond warehouse in an attempt to track down Bell. They succeed too well – finding both Bell and some armed goons – and Astrid receives a gut shot as the episode ends.
1. Flame On!
Not quite classic spontaneous combustion. In this case, only their cheeks and respiratory system (or maybe GI system) burnt up – they didn’t all spontaneously burst in to flame.
2. Forget Minute Rice, Try Our Minute Cultures!
That’s way too short an amount of time to declare an area free of airborne germs. Well, unless you’re using a tricorder. Mabey Nimoy brought one with him.
3. Must Be Empty, And Very Understaffed
St. Claire’s hasn’t reassigned the room, or at least cleaned the desk, in the four years since Walter left?
4. And Lets Not Forget the Foreshadowing: Almonds = Cyanide
If William didn’t sign the page of the ledger, then why is his almond-residue on it? And why is only his snack on there? Surely someone else had eaten before touching the ledger.
5. My Get Rich Quick Plan Continues
Tonight’s episode is just more proof that the best way to make money in the Fringe universe is to own empty warehouses.
6. Don’t Try This At Home Kids
It’s not that easy to relocate a shoulder — in fact, I doubt Peter would have the strength to do it the way shown — especially with a posterior dislocation like Peter suffered. (Now if Peter has suffered multiple posterior dislocations before, his shoulder could pop in and out of socket easier than normal, though with all the fights he’s been in, you’d think we’d have seen that before.)
7. Have A Bigger Party, There’s More Than Enough XP To Go Around
It never occurs to Peter and Olivia they might need back up? They have access to an entire FBI division, after all.
8. Loaves and Fishes Lemon Cake and Pigs Brains
Cortexiphan now has regenerative properties? Hasn’t seemed to do much for Olivia in the past, though it does completely restore that tissue lemon cake really easily. Forget telekinesis, Walter has solved the world’s hunger problem.
A good episode, but there was enough here to spread it out over another episode. The Fringe Doomsday Clock remains at 11:54.

Color looms large in March, and with the beginning of spring, the season of budding hues, came rich images and stories on the blogosphere. The colors of note were certainly hot: Neon seemed to be having a moment in the world of interiors. From the scorching pinks highlighted by the The Style Files, to the electric accents in kitchens we spotlighted on Remodelista, bold hues were married with more classic environments. It seems black and white were taking a back seat in the fashion world as well, as Refinery29 reported on ways to mix florescent into one's wardrobe and we noted siren red on the legs of the "color courageous." Indeed, color prevails in the art world. The Daily Imprint highlighted the emerging Australian artist James Ettelson, who incorporates rich pigments into his work in a style that "combines traditional Aboriginal painting techniques with pop art." Moco Loco paid homage to the textual compositions by Swedish artist Matthias Van Arkel, describing one of his turquoise pieces of dyed platinum and silicon rubber to be so vibrant that it "begs to be touched." It seemed the images of Italian photographer Helenio Barbetta had a similar positive effect on viewers, as Desire to Inspire wrote that his shots of interiors and exteriors highlight "everything demanding attention."
While various voices in the design, style and art worlds blogged about their true colors, the gastronomical side of the web was also bursting with hue inspiration. On the cusp of the spring produce bounty, food bloggers were creative with what was still in season: After a trip to Morocco, Heidi Swanson created a recipe for bright yellow Ginger Grapefruit Curd for her blog 101 Cookbooks, while the Smitten Kitten incorporated root vegetables into breakfast for Carrot Cake Pancakes. For the adventurous epicurean looking for an eclectic ambience, Remodelista highlighted a zeitgeist café and an i-Hop-turned-hip-Korean-Fusion restaurant--two dining spots that work color into their décor in unique and adventurous ways.
Guest post from the editors at Remodelista, the sourcebook for the considered home.
Woodly Park, owned by Billy Black, will give you the option to stay in one of their 3 unique motels: the underground hobbit motel (straight out of Tolkien's books, circular windows and all), a converted, a converted railcar with 3 rooms and a 1950's Bristol Freighter plane, fully refurbished.swedin.com
The first half of 2009 has been sordid thanks to the invasion of the recession, terrorism and new health concerns that have left many key industries across India and the rest of the world in a lurch. The ghosts of 2008 just refuse to die down and continue to haunt the world economies! While the global tourism industry and the Indian tourism industry in particular is no exception to this, experts see this as an opportunity in crisis. The key lies in identifying the problems, fixing them and this is just the right time to do it! However, it will take a concerted effort by India, the winner of three awards of the United Nations World Tourism Organization including Asia's favourite tourist destination in 2007, to see through this turmoil. All this makes the World Tourism Day on September 27 this year even more challenging and exciting like never before!
