    Default Licence plates

    I don't know if this has been discussed before (I didn't find it), but I noticed that Olivia's car has R2D2 on the licence plate. Broyles' has C3PO written on it.

    Any thoughts on this?

    They're just fun eastereggs. Like the Slusho cups, and that Star Trek guy revealing the plot of the movie.

    I don't think it has significance to the plot. I think it was just a fun thing to notice, and if you were the one who noticed it, nice catch!

    I mentioned this on the review thread, but I think that it's funny that a direct comparison can be made between Peter and Luke in Empire Strikes Back, who both found out that their fathers aren't who they thought they were (and if Walternate turns out to be the big bad of the series, the analogy is even more apt).

    Haha, yes! Only with this twist...

    Walternate: Peter, I am your fathah!
    Peter: *sigh* Yeah, I figured that out already. Thanks.

    LOL!

    Walternate: Peter, I am your fathah!
    Peter: *sigh* Yeah, I figured that out already. Thanks
    Walternate: Uh, good...I mean, if you only knew your own importance! The Observers have foreseen this. Join me and together we can destroy the other Universe! (shakes fist dramatically)
    Peter: Sure. But I'm not going to wear a cape...

    Walter: But the cape is the best part! My son, have they really corrupted you so?!
    Peter: I could go for a robot hand.
    Walter: That works.
