Has there been any reconciliation between Peter and Walter? I stopped watching because I couldn't bear watching Walter's heart get broken over and over.
They're doing it backwards; walking up the down slide.

A topic for the discussion of Doctor Who, Arrow, and The Flash. Beware possible invasions of iZombie, Sleepy Hollow, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi, superhero, or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect adult content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
OMG Fringe. Way to limit the time Torv spends in a pregnancy pad. Did anyone else find much of that even freakier than Alien?
Love the new intrigue for the Fringe team and that KickAsstrid is at least partially in the know. Loved seeing Henry again. Really loved the Lincoln/Liv interaction when they both thought she wouldn't make it. It'll be interesting to see if that goes anywhere.
The story I like is a dilemma started by our side with selfish but well-intentioned motives, and has two sides of equal "rootability" fighting for their futures.
I think that's exactly what the intention is.
As to what the device does, we really don't know. We've heard Walter's interpretation of the drawing and the First People books, and we've heard what Sam Weiss chose to tell Nina. We don't know what Walternate and his Brendan believe, or what their source of information is. Creation/destruction are the common watchwords, but with what scale and/or level of specificity?
My thoughts lean toward the creation side. Could we end up with a 2nd Peter? Or a 3rd universe? Will a 3rd universe be green or yellow?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
From Cocktail Party Physics, a thing on non-Newtonian fluid: when fluids get weird
Posted here because:
UPDATE: A Facebook pal pointed me to this awesome appearance by Dr. Who's Matt Smith on British TV explaining about Non-Newtonian fluids (a.k.a. batter). Why don't we see this on The View or Good Morning America?
Karen Gillan's in it too.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Why don't we see this on The View or Good Morning America?
OMG can you imagine? They'd never get around to explaining anything for all the time they'd spend on utterly stupid questions and inane giggling.

Will a 3rd universe be green or yellow?
I didn't know that I needed to know the answer to this question, but I absolutely do.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Hey, I made non-Newtonian fluid with Dylan just a couple of weeks ago! Only mine's made with borax and glue instead of cornstarch and water.

On Nova's "Making Stuff" they played with non-Newtonian fluids, using cornstarch and water, I believe, and having people run across a tank. It was very cool.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
We did cornstarch and water with our Navajo school kids. Much fun was had.

He also played Liberace in a TV movie.
