OMG.........Fringe is one of my favorite programs. If you people have so much negative reactions to it, why not just change the channel and watch one of those stupid, fake bachelor, or I can dance or I can sing programs. At least Fringe has a story line and yes some of what they get in to is actually factual; history. GREAT program.

Personally I liked the episode.

Was it just me, or was the Civic Centre at the end the same building they used for the 4400 Centre on "4400"?

i think he was a german observer type. the opening scene in the wedding has the grandma (lets call her bubby) recognizing him and is in disbelief that it is him.

Honestly, I found the show extremely interesting - the one thing that bothers me about Fringe is their absolute violation of the 4th Amendment every single time someone is "not home." Besides that, I am always on board.

Nice writing but helps to listen or actually follow the whole story before just writing a skimmed view of the show before writing.

The German scientist was the same one in the photo who was probably a assistant to Walters father at the time. That is how he got the formula as it was the same exact one hence the tagging of the seahorse in the genetic encoding. More than likely he experimented on himself at some point for some anti-aging treatment as one of them mentioned the dna recovered was over 100 years old and wasn't in a database. Not a far leap to that as doing genetic experimentation for killing someone/group based on a trait could also in theory remove a trait ie aging. But probably missed the part where Peter or Walter mentioned the Germans pushed science. Or missed any history class since WW2 which would have mentioned the same thing but I digress. The survivor recognized him as said experiments were probably taking place at the same concentration camp.

Does anyone get the feeling like this show is definitely headed for Peter discovering the truth about "other" Peter being dead? The last couple of episodes have really pushed that subplot along, from Walter's mentioning it offhand to Astrid, to his comments last night about "family'--I think that is going to be a major thing very soon.

Nazis are evil and deserve to die. Nazi killers should be rewarded for their good deeds.

I enjoyed the episode. However, to pick up on some of the discussion of last week's episode, I'm missing the larger story-arc stuff. I don't need it in every episode, but it seems like it's been ages since we've even seen Blair Brown and Massive Dynamic, let alone Leonard Nimoy and the alternate universe.

Having just seen the overnights from last night, let's agree to disagree about the actual plot of this episode and celebrate the fact that Fringe scored a 6.0 in HH and a 3.0 in 18-49, quite possibly beating CSI (which for the record was a repeat) - as long as this show can go another season (or three) I can stand a little inconsistency with history

Another thing that bugged me was that blatant American superiority complex.

Walter killing the Nazi and Broyles silently approving because "Nazis are evil, they deserve to die".

Walter's reaction to the artist's Hitler collage.

Walter proudly proclaiming that his father was a spy for the Allies.

The Nazi frantically declaring Bishop's father a "traitor".

All of that came across as a blatant "Durr Nazis evil America superior good". As I said, Flash Forward was able to do a story with a Nazi villain that was a lot less kneejerk and even allowed for a more sympathetic look at contemporary German. (Also, the German dialogue was pleasantly genuine.)

Then again, the world of Fringe IS terribly black and white. Does it bug anyone else how the main characters on this show repeatedly crap all over civil rights, and the show presents that not just as a necessary evil, but as something not even worth thinking twice about?
