She did exist and was still married and had TWO kids.
Too many universes!
I'm so evil and... skanky. And I think I'm kinda gay.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The IO9 review is saying that when Duke got Roy's blood on his hands he learnt that he was Troubled. I'd been assuming they already knew, and not just because of the conversation they had at the bar about killing his grandfather and removing the family's Troubles.
I'm vaguely remembering a moment in a previous episode where he worked this out.
Does anyone else? I mean, the ending convo didn't sound extra theoretical--I mean, the only think in the air was whether or not the Troubles would end, not if he was touched by them.

I thought they mentioned at the end of last season that she used up most of the Cortexaphin in her system by coming back to life.
Otherwise, I would have hoped that Etta would have shown some special skills from being exposed to Cortexaphin through her mother.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Blocking the Observer mind reading seemed like a pretty good special skill.

Man ST:TNG The Inner Light just never disappoints. So moving. It ranks in my top five list of best/favorite hours of television. FF Out of Gas and BSG 33 are in the top five, too. I'm not sure what my others are. Oh, well, Community Remedial Chaos Theory, but that's only a half hour, so I guess I get a bonus half hour slot to fill.
I'm not sure what else goes on the list. Anyone?

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
He just wants to make sure we weep with gratitude when they actually do reach a good place.
You are right about that. And with Fringe, we will be very very grateful.

Okay, I just caught up with Haven.
For some reason, it did not occur to me that the father of Colorado Kid could be Nathan! I thought there was jut a lot of snogging action. I would be thoroughly amused by this for some reason.
I just want to know if the CK is troubled.

Yeah, but she was able to teach that to other people, so I don't really think it's a Cortexaphin skill.

It seemed to come pretty naturally to her and it took Broyles a year to learn so I'm inclined to count it. It not as flashy as telekinesis, but still pretty cool.
