On last night ’s Fringe we get wind that stealing dream is not only habit-forming , it can make some people experience out-and-out stabby . Plus , Walter flexes his sore scientist muscles using a naive FBI agent and a flask of trichloromethane .
Dream car : If I ’ve learned anything from watch over Fringe , it ’s that you should never , ever join a clinical trial . Earlier this season , it was those soldier and their neurotoxin discourse that made them explode , and this week it was the guy who want to hijack your dreams .
Our mystery story of the hebdomad kvetch off when a former sleepwalker suddenly think one of his Centennial State - worker is a demon straight out of Angel , and bulge out bashing his brain in . To add insult to crazy , the demon - see fellow soon die of exhaustion . And subsequently on , a eating place chef walk through her kitchen at work , but rather of seeing tasty moo-cow center on the grill , she sees human hands and flips out , convinced her carbon monoxide gas - doer are cannibals . Much stabbing ensue .
Turns out both of these lucid dreamer received handling for eternal rest upset from a Dr. Nayak . Nayak implanted a chip in the brains of these once - disturbed sleeper ( second note : if you do take part in a trial , never get them put a chip in your head ) . The bit was hypothesize to act as a sort of glandular SA node to order the thalamus , but Nayak really used it to carry their pipe dream to his Einstein . No dreaming means no rest , hence the exhaustion deaths . But he can also activate the dream state while they ’re awake , causing all those outre hallucination . But why slip dreams ? According to Walter , it ’s a lot like being on LSD , but also extremely addictive .
As much as a dream - stealing automobile sounds like something out of a child ’s faery tale , we actually get some coolheaded visuals out of it and some classically villainous mad science . I ’ll take this over scorpion small fry any Clarence Day .
Promise Me , No Students : Can we just dump Agent Jessup and assume Agent Kashner or else ? It ’s dainty to see someone enter the lab who is n’t as stoic as Astrid or Olivia ( I mean , finally someone had to vomit at the autopsy table ) . And he ’s so utterly unprepared for Walter that it ’s kind of endearing . Dude , he ’s not just some brainsick old man . He ’s a mad scientist .
No More Nightmares : Every clip Peter utters a individual word about his childhood , I ’m sure it ’s chock full of meaning . Here , he tells Olivia about the nightmares he had as a tyke , and that Walter — in one of his rare minute of parental involvement — restrain him from remembering the nightmares . I was almost disappointed that we check the reason for this so quickly . Peter has nightmare about being snatch up from his room by a gentleman’s gentleman who both is and is not his don — that being the Walter of our universe .
Word Jumble : Olivia ’s bowling guru is still in the picture , and I guess we ’ll have to stupefy with him until we learn whether he holds the secrets of the universe . Bowling Guru has Olivia do an employment where she obtains a ostensibly random set of letter and then rearrange them into a coherent idiomatic expression — the phrasal idiom she want to hear . I ’m seriously looking for a transcript of The Secret in that bowling back street . Anyway , Olivia cries when she realizes her letter form the phrase “ You ’re gon na be fine . ” Sure , until that other universe comes crashing down on your head .
Astrid Watch : Did Walter just call her star again ? Ouch .
Walter Moment of the calendar week : Definitely drugging Agent Kashner . No contest .
But it does seem remaining after his heartfelt apologia to hallucinogen - have intercourse French Guinea pig Rebecca last week . In fact , between this and the Asterisk comment , it feel like Walter is recidivate a shade .
