Newton activates a "sleeper" shapeshifter agent, and Fringe Division's investigation of the case leads to Massive Dynamic.
 
Hey guys, sorry I can't be here for this, but something came up. Will view the tape tomorrow and post comments then.
 
Above Average but not quite as good as the previous episodes have been. I really liked the subtext of emotions, how they can override even the most stoic and disciplined of mindsets. And I even like the potential inner conflict Folivia faces as a result of her own emotions.

But I really am getting a bit fatigued with her charade. Peter acknowledging her change in character is important, as well as him pointing out how people can deceive themselves. But the plot line is beginning to wear thin. Hopefully there will be some resolution to it in the not-too-distant future (when the show returns, of course).
 
I'm getting tired of yelling at my t.v. "Peter! Get your hands of FauxLivia!" :lol:

Walter high at Massive Dynamics :guffaw:
 
I will Miss Newton.... He was such a deliciously evil cold bad guy.

There's probably an original Newton that the robot newton was templated after so my guess is we'll see him again.

As for the episode. Very good, but not "Great". The Walter humour and the Cop who obviously cherished his family despite who he was were both handled very well. Peter seems to know something's up with Olivia but either isn't willing to make the leap or already has and is just stringing Faux-olivia along.

Based on the last scene with them sleeping together, I tend to think Peter may not be aware that she's not the real Olivia but he may, like Faux-olivia just be willing to go the extra mile (real bummer for him, I'm sure) and go along with the sex part to keep her fooled.

I hope it's that and that Peter will turn the tables on her when the timing's right.......otherwise, he's going to seem quite the doofus for picking up on how different this Olivia is, but not make the connection.
