A man came in to the Vitas Petrol office, only to collapse and died with ruptured veins, causing to spray his blood everywhere. The death required the investigation of Olivia and Peter, who were later quarantined inside the building to prevent the spread of a deadly virus. Walter and Astrid tried to unlock the mysterious virus in order to find cure and to stop a possible global infection. Walter got emotional with Peter’s condition, almost confessing to Astrid the death of his real son, Peter.

A small town called Edina was found to be inhabitate by disfigured humans, whose faces look to be normal in the perception of the outsiders. The Fringe team later discovered that Walter Bishop once involved in the same research which aims to camouflage soldiers in the war. In this episode, Walter expressed himself of fear of getting lost and abducted, referencing back to what happened in the Grey Matters.
Fox unearthed an episode involving a never-seen-before case of a dead girl coming back to life, which happened to be “possessed” by a Russian speaking navy officer. Since this episode is supposedly in Season 1, we see Olivia’s partner Agent Charlie (and Astrid’s old hairstyle) alive and kicking. Fringe, in this episode, seems to get into the world of Ghost Whisperer, as Andrew Rusk need to (fulfill his unfinished business) avenge his death by going after the responsible for the murder, his wife.

Fringe team explores Chinatown to reveal a giant bioengineered hookworm smuggled using Chinese people as human incubator. The episode is filled with horrifying scenes, amazing dramatic performances and… subtitles. Sadly though even if it is such an awesome episode, you end up wondering what is the point of the episode… and yes, because it is a stand-alone.

In this episode, Fringe team investigates an unusual kidnapping involving a familiar creepy bald guy in a black suit. It was found out that there are more than one observers. As one of the observers broke the golden rule of not to get involve with humans, someone should pay the price. This episode got to be the most-hype episode of Fringe… but for me, it did not live up to the over hype and my expectation. Little questions were answered. More questions were raised. But nevertheless, it is enjoyable ride. We saw more of the observers. It’s a rare treat from Fringe.

The Fringe team investigates a kidnapping that led into discovery of a boy who has a capability of controlling other people’s actions using his mind. Further investigation unravels the connection of the mind-controlling boy with the Massive Dynamic. My personal take on this episode: Just an okay episode. A few questions had been answered, the episode teased the audience but the story did not move much.

After the hiatus, Fringe came back with yet another stand-alone episode. Personally, I feel disappointed with it. It’s not a good come back episode, questions are not answered, no story continuity, unclear fringe science… and if you missed this episode, I dare say, you don’t miss much. In this episode, the team investigated a case of strange shadow entity stealing radiation from humans, killing them by turning them into ashes. Apparently, this is the same case handled by Broyles years ago, which caused his marriage. In the midst of this, we found out that things are bigger than we thought. CIA is involved. Russians has their own fringe case.
