I don't think he knew who she was.
I thought he called her Olive.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
That was Walter, after she crossed back over. Walternate just stared at her and listened.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I was expecting some kind of memory wipe as a way to "help" Peter. Repressed trauma would be easier to buy if they were younger, but younger kids probably couldn't give the performances these kids did. I still think something else is up with the memories of the Cortexiphan kids since only a couple of them seem to remember.

All is well that ends in pizza.
Over On Mark Watches Fringe [link] for this week, I posted this:
I wonder if forgetting is one of the other kids future abilities. I would really like it if the kids choose to forget, even Peter, wanting to get past the pain of remembering the other side.
Note: Gratuitous link posting to note that Mark Watches is doing Fringe, too, in case anyone wants to expound.

From the link.
How does Walternate find out where Peter disappeared to?
Because fucking OLIVIA DUNHAM FUCKING TOLD HIM.
Yep. Damn.

I could see Peter choosing to forget. We see him choose to accept this world. Believing and forgetting would complete the mental self-preservation process.

Has he started to remember? Would new events bring those memories back?
It would be interesting to see if Olivia and Peter start remembering that they'd met before.

Oh, and given the promises that Mrs. Walter made to Peter - what drove her to suicide? Was the pressure of pretending that she still had her son when really she was mourning his loss too much for her at the end?

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I think it was probably despair at what her husband had become.

Does anyone remember (or did they ever say) how old Peter was when that happened?
