1.19 The Observer Sighting Thread

[The Black Ghost]

I dont know if anyone else noticed this, but during Olivia's second vision--the burning city-- you can see scrawled on the wall of a building in red graffiti "HE IS HERE!"


I dont know if this is implying the Observer...certainly it has in the past, but who knows...maybe it is someone else. If it does mean the Observer, does that mean he is in some way responsible for the events that are taking place?

I was thinking that it meant the Observer as well referring back to the "Observers Are Here" thing in the opening credits.

Nice catch, didn't notice that one.

I'm not sure how much this relates to the Observer, because that is all he is in my opinion, an observer.

It might be just a religious thing meaning the apocalypse. I've also been thinking about what Walter said to Astrid in the end of episode 1.14. Where he said "It doesn't kill you, it does something unthinkable"... It could give the person unknown abilities, which has caused all the destruction in Olivia's Visions.

My understanding is that whenever the Observer makes a very big appearance (The Arrival, Inner Child, The Road Not Taken), he is absent throughout the rest of the episode. You could try to find him, but I'll doubt he'll be spotted anywhere other than the lab scene at the end.

Regarding MD observing him, I thought that was really cool. I also think that the last time he was around, a big conflict between the two sides in the war happened. The Observer needs Walter because he knows about all the weapons that can be used in the war.

Didn't he show up multiple times in The Arrival, at the diner at the begining, at the diner with Walter and in the cemetary?

Isn't that more than one appearance?

And technically in Midnight he walked past the first victim twice in the club.

Yeah it's simple yet it makes you think hard haha, yeah i hope that we do get to see more of him through season 2 and he doesn't get killed off or something.

I'm hoping we will see a whole army of bald guys next season, and who knows, maybe girls too!

I think the text could have something to do with the Observer.
Consider these images:

This is from an early poster of Olivia lying in the tank. This one:


This is from the intro and it's using a similar wording.
