fringe_rewatchAnd we're back!
Because "Safe" ended in a cliffhanger, with Jones escaping and Olivia being kidnapped, and "Bound" at least partially resolves that in what has to be the longest before the credit sequence I have ever seen, the episodes together almost work like a two-parter. I liked "Bound" much more than "Safe"; however, I liked "Safe" more after having watched "Bound."
Onward.
Writers: J.J. Abrams, Jeff Pinkner, Alex Kurtzman, and Roberto Orci
Director: Frederick E.O. Toye
Originally aired: 20 Jan 2009
Synopsis: After they inject an unknown substance into her spine, Olivia manages to escape her captors. Fortunately, since the warehouse where she was held is empty before the FBI assault team arrives, she's taken some evidence with her and hidden it. By coincidence (or not?) an old adversary, Sanford Harris, has been sent by the Pentagon to do an internal audit of Fringe Division. Also, not by coincidence, an infectious disease specialist has died mid-lecture in a bizarre and exciting way. Olivia's team is called in to investigate. We also learn that Olivia has a sister, Rachel, and a niece, Ella, who is pictured above with her Magic Eight Ball.
Most Memorable Quote:
PETER: Get it, get it. get it!
(Walter regains his focus and throws a wastebasket over the organism)
WALTER (beaming happily): Things like this used to happen in the lab all the time. Makes me nostalgic.
Matchmaker!Walter:
Walter: I was worried when you were taken, too.
Olivia: Thank you, Walter.
Walter: Not as much as him, of course.
Peter: Walter.

Date: 2014-05-18 03:06 am (UTC)I think Anna Torv really starts to come into her own playing Olivia in this episode. She was probably a little bland to carry a series prior to this. But I'm more interested in her character now.
Philip Loeb is a ruthless terrorist, a murderer, and a zealot. Guantanomo would be too good for him as far as I'm concerned.
