No, I was not referring to the scene with Walter and Peter. I was talking about earlier in the episode when Olivia informs Walter and Astrid about what Peter has done. Astrid is freaked, both detectable in her face and her voice. Walter, however, keeps on talking in a very matter-of-fact tone. Not…

Strong finish to hiatus those last two episodes. I agree with Phil's last paragraph (and the rest of the review). Last time they did funny/poignant right. This time they did dramatic/tragic right.

I didn't like how we were supposed to think that she would use it, especially when she had a look at it, again. I knew she wouldn't do that. Not a nice try, Fringe writers!

This episode rather made me feel like things are going down-hill, again. The review is spot-on. The concept of Hexter is challenging, but it's too little too late and perhaps deserved its own season. Feels too much like a device to switch the roles of Dexter and Deb.
