I gave it 5 stars...just because of that little bit at the end...with you-know-who...really has me interested...
ReplyDeleteThe biggest question I have after tonight, "Is the Observer neutral or bad?" We know that there is a war going on, but is Baldy on a side? Also, is the Colonel part of ZFT? Why was Walter's pic in the briefcase if Baldy knows Walter and saved his life?!? Soooo many questions!!
ReplyDeleteI admit that "Fracture" really kept one on the edge of the seat. However, I was hoping that there would be more of Olivia's superhearing like was shown in "Night of Desirable Objects", especially as shown with the closeup of her ear in the scene where she was at home in the tub. I'm hoping that in future episodes there will be more of Olivia's superhearing, preferably shown as a closeup of her ear rather than weird and revolving camera angles.
ReplyDeleteI still think the Observer is good, so maybe that means that the Colonel is bad/with ZFT, it's just more and more questions, which keeps me coming back for me.
ReplyDeleteI think the superhearing may have just been some strange side effect from Olivia's crossing over and it wore off after a while.
ReplyDeleteAren't we supposed to think that there are more than one Observer? That is to say, wasn't the bald kid found in the warehouse a little Observer clone? So, there are possibly a bunch of Observer clones including good and bad ones? Sorry if I'm dense and way off the mark. :-)
ReplyDeleteP.S. When Oliva was listening to the first fly, I thought that she was going to hear it say, "Heeeeeelp meeeeeee!".
ReplyDeleteOut of curiosity, does anyone fluent in the language they speak while in Iraq (Arabic, I think?) know if the actors were any good at their non-english lines? Just a minor point I am interested in.
ReplyDeleteKeeping in theme with the other Alice In Wonderland allusions, I've notice another allusion to a story that deals with alternate realities, The Wizard of Oz.
ReplyDeleteIn the previous episode that there were plenty of screen shots focusing on the scarecrow (which I do have to agree looked like Mr Jones in the bandages).
In this episode there is reference to the Tin man (which seems to be a next episode clue for the shape shifters and their mercury infused blood)
Considering that we are seeing these character allusions in the same order as Dorothy I've gotta ask: When do we meet the Lion and the wizard???
