This episode started slow but I thought the second half was really good. I'm interested to find out more about bowling alley man and to learn who has been activating the cortexafan (totally misspelled that) folks.
I went above average for this one. The case itself was ok, but I liked getting to learn more about the Cortexefan study. So do you think it's Newton, or someone else "activating" the people from the study?
So am I the only one thinking that the bowling alley guy is immortal? I know that was my first thought when he said he was older than it looks.

She's Joshua Jackson's GF.
So, we got both robocop and the hot curator chick from national treasure next week?

Another monster-of-the-week Fringe episode, and another average. Kind of a let down from last week, but there were some good scenes in this episode.

Okay, I guess that explains things. I was pleasantly surprised to see her at the beginning, then even more surprised when she was killed off before the opening credit sequence!
Above average. Not as good as last week's but a fairly entertaining little episode. If you are going to do a one-off(yeah it ties into the myth but not at first) then more of this variety please.
The title for the episode is misleading. I expected a mystery with a murder or something in the lab.
Olivia did the right thing by choosing to not tell Peter in my opinion. It would cause too much grief. Curious about who is going around activating the test subjects--thought it was Bell but guess not. At first I thought someone like the hybrids had turned him loose on the other test subjects to eliminate them--seeing them as a potential threat to their plans--might have been a more interesting turn of events than it was just a coincidence.
Olivia, Peter and Walter have come leaps and bounds from the uninvolving characters that could be earlier this season.
Hopefully the rest of the season will be as strong as the last two hours.

Olivia, never very interesting, spends way too much time on screen. Every scene with bowling alley White Shaman is painful. Her emo over whether or not to tell Peter is dreary, while her lack of emo over whether or not to tell Broyles makes her look like a fool. Then suddenly having Walter change is mind makes it all kind of pointless.
And Walter is right. Peter should leave and not come back. One of the big flaws in the show is that it's never been clear why Peter is there. Custody of Walter is absurd and instant adoration for Olivia is trite.
The only problem of course is that there's nothing good about the show except Walter. But Walter is always at his best with Peter. So the writers are going to have to come up with some lame ass plot churning to return to the status quo.
