I gave it an 8... There were some things that didn't satisfy me... But I'm sure that'll change once I do a rewatch tomorrow morning...
~Mancha~
My favorite Fringe episodes are the ones that where there is no monster of the week crap, just sole focus on the story and reveals. This was right up there and the reveals we got really show that the writers have a plan and aren't just making crap up as they go along. Easy 10.
I reserve 10s for only my most favorite episodes of the show ever like "Peter" and "White Tulip". I do not think this episode was of that caliber. I gave it a 7. I thought it was good, although not as good as the previous 2 episodes. My Polivia shipper heart was so excited to see them finally back together and then of course the writers had to ruin it for me and put an obstacle in the way. Grr! It seems as if other Polivia fans here are viewing the current state of their relationship more positively than I am, because I felt very disappointed at the end of the episode. I probably would have given it an 8 if it hadn't been for that. Polivia isn't the only reason why I watch the show though. I was also excited to see what they would do with September, and unfortunately that part didn't quite live up to my expectations either. I really didn't feel as if that many answers were given. It's not really a shocker that the observers are time travelers from the future, I had already figured out that they were something like that. I guess I expected September's mind to be more of head trip like Olivia's mind was in LSD, and that we would get to learn more about the Observers through what we saw in his head. It was a let down to me that it didn't happen that way.

I believe the reason why it wasn't a headtrip is because Peter wasn't under the influence of Acid at the time. Remember, Walter and Peter were only purveyed as 'cartoonish' because they were high, even in her mind. Love that episode. One of my favs for it's creativity and originality.
ok.. who voted 1? lol .. this EP was so good, how could someone vote 1?!
i know!!!!
Theres more than one of everything...
Huh. I gave it a 2, but I was seriously considering giving it a 1. Not sure if I want to get into all the reasons, and it probably isn't necessary; suffice it to say that they are flirting with total mytharc fail, which is the worst fail of all the fails.
At least I can amuse myself by thinking that this might be the first scifi show written from the perspective of a pushy mother-in-law who thinks nothing is right until she becomes a grandmother.

Oh well, everyone is entitled their opinion. If 3% of ppl rated it a 1 or 2, I am happy with those numbers.
