I think he was fooling himself when he talked to his assistant, and to his Alternate Wife. He was pretty much done with delusion by the time he talked to Olivia.
Mal: So we run. Nandi: I understand, Captain Reynolds. You have your people to think of, same as me. And this ain't your fight. Mal: Don't believe you do understand, Nandi. I said 'we run'. We.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I absolutely get Walter thinking he was doing the noble thing and intending to take Peter back. It's just the kind of denial I'd be in in that situation.
What a wonderful and touching episode; I really enjoyed (Dr?) Warren interjecting religion and Oppenheimer into the mix.

She said she has three PhD's, so she'd be a Dr.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
That was one of the most affecting episodes of Fringe I've seen, and kudos for John Noble, who carried it so very well.
(Does this mean that Peter is the Kwisatz Haderach?)
And SGU wasn't shabby either!

I asked in natter, but does anyone know how they made Walter look so young?

Our wings are not tired.
I thought they did a great job, but no clue what they did.

I'm wondering if she's the "lab assistant" who died on Walter. 3 PhDs, Walter might still consider you an assistant....

Cream of Wheat: there's a lot of women with significant agency in this series. And usually they're the wise ones.
