Fringe "The Bullet That Saved The World" Review: Loss, as Motivation

If you kept it together during this episode, you're probably drinking Tabasco straight out of the bottle right now.

Really?? Guys, really?! WHY??! Poor Olivia... She deserves to be happy for more than 4-5 episodes.

The only way out of this mess is if they somehow find a way to travel back in time and stop the observers from ever invading in the first place. Also, there is no chemistry between Peter and Olivia. Time Travel!

I really dont know where to start, Agent Broyles is obviously The Dove & to

be honest there was no need to kill Etta. How could you do such a thing she

had a major part in this war against The Observers. The anti-matter bombs that

Walter developed was a fantastic weapon. How do you come back from this, really

i would love to know. We are supposed to be winning this war not losing & especially people that we love. The only way i can even comprehend that we win the war

against The Observers is Walter open that portal to the alternate universe & call

for reinforcements. Its the only way we can win, i dont read spoilers but being the

last season anything is possible. Peter did say to Walter "There Has Got To Be A Better

Option To Get Us Into That Train Station Than A Portal That Can See Us In Another Universe" or something like that.

Just one last thing, so emotional & powerful was that scene when Etta died, i cried.moreless
