That was confusing but I think you have it right, aurelia. I was stunned that Nimoy was there even in amber. But maybe he wasn't considered part of the team?
Simon: I'm trying to put this as delicately as I can... How do I know you won't kill me in my sleep? Mal: You don't know me, son. So let me explain this to you once: If I ever kill you, you'll be awake, you'll be facing me, and you'll be armed.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I know it's silly, but I do enjoy it when Joel Wyman responds to one of my tweets with a winky face.

Probably not since Walter said Bell couldn't be forgiven for what he'd done to Olivia.

I don't think they actually got Nimoy, though: I bet it was just CGI.
That was wacky, I have to say. And what relationship does the colonization storyline have with the dual-universe storyline?
In fact, which universe was this? The amber made me think it was the Red universe, but Walter was pretty clearly not the SecDef.
I don't get it!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
A whole new universe, maybe. Or what emerges if the red and blue universes collapse into one, maybe. Er, the amber versions of the red and blue universes. I may need a different vocabulary to figure this out.
On the whole, bewildering! Walter with his whole brain is a scary dude. Other than that, I do not know what to think.
Is this the future that Peter jumped to that time that I can't really remember?

I'm not sure. That one was in the middle of something, and he had aged his way into it, and Olivia was in it. So I don't think it's the same future.

Actual Nimoy, according to Wyman (or Pinkner, I forget which).
I think this was a possible future for the amber world we've been in this season. They didn't address what happened to the red side in this future, but Bell had to come from somewhere.
The other future we saw was prevented when Peter chose not to destroy the red-verse with the machine.

I'm going to make a prediction. Remember this quote?
I've seen all possible futures and in everyone the result is the same. You have to die.
If we get a season 5, even a shortened one, we will see this happen. And not in a future that gets reset kind of way. We might even see that bullet being strung onto the necklace.
I also think we'll see Olivia's powers manifesting in a serious way by the end of this season.

It looks like we're back to the "present" next week. This was very confusing. But, I loved the family reunion at the end.

All is well that ends in pizza.
I got the impression that using part of Walter's brain that had been cut out to heal him, also brought a harder edge to Walter than any of his present incarnations, other than Walternate.

I also would have liked to see a glimmer of a smile pass over Older!Broyles face when he looked at the Red Vine.
