I'm a little embarrassed to admit that I didn't pick up on the whole alternate!universe!Peter thing the first time through. It's a fascinating twist, though. Can't wait to get the DVDs this summer so I can go through it again to play "Where's Baldo?" and "Find the Peter Hint". (Plus, y'know, drooling over Joshua Jackson ain't never gettin' old.)
So glad they got picked up for another season. The personal relationships are really gelling. ZFT has become rather intriguing. The Massive Dynamic angle is just starting to get interesting. Olivia's adventures through the looking glass should prove to be even more so. As long as they can keep away from the possibly-treasonous-boyfriend storyline, I'll be watching and waiting.
While the idea of a possibly SANE alt-Walter is intriguing, I'm hoping that there are mitigating factors, like maybe alt-Peter's parents are dead so it wasn't quite STEALING as much as adopting. Remember, the ZFT manifesto mentioned the Multiverse, and the ep title and Baldo's words were not "There's two of everything" but "There's more than one of everything." If we're dealing with multiple alts, then Walter could have found one where Peter was an orphan. Also wondering about alt-Bell: what happened that allowed this Bell to take his place? And the mind boggles at the thot that there could be alt-Jones, alt-Harris and even ALT-JOHN SCOTT out there!
I figure there are at least four possible results of Peter's abduction. 1. That he was an orphan and Walter's abduction affected few if any people. 2. That Peter disappeared in such a way that alt-Walter believes he is dead and has moved on with his life. 3. That somewhere there is a very pissed off brilliant SANE Walter who is working coldly and clinically to get his son back. 4. That somewhere there is a pissed off, brilliant, INSANE Walter who may be willing to tear apart worlds and alternate universes to get Peter back and to get revenge on man and the world that stole Peter from him. I can't wait to see which it is.
As appealing as No. 4 is (and it is damn appealing) I like No. 3 best, because I want to see a cold and calculating evil!Walter.
beach is great
