An unofficial companion to Fringe
Glyphs, easter eggs, buried clues, behind-the-scenes videos, thematic connections, and more, catalogued episode by episode with screenshots and timestamps.
Connection
The posters from Peter's Redverse bedroom in "Subject 13" were hung on the wall when Walternate took him back in "Over There (Part 2)" in order to bring a sense of comfort and familiarity to Peter.
Item of interest
When Nina looks in Bell's storage room for his copy of the First People book the camera pans by a copy of 'Dr. Spock's Baby and Childcare'.
Leaf glyph
A leaf can be seen on the bio-scan monitor at the Liberty Island security checkpoint.
Connection
In "The Ghost Network" Roy had visions of the crash of Flight 627 from "Pilot", suggesting that that incident is part of a larger pattern of incidents and not a one-off event.
Item of interest
Olivia struck James Heath with a candlestick in her dining room, making the title a complete red herring.
Butterfly glyph
A butterfly can be seen painted on the side of a white trash can.
Connection
Walter thought of Peter when he saw the image of a coffin in "Grey Matters" because his Peter died in "Peter".
Item of interest
Observers send materials to themselves via shipping lanes from the future using metal cubes.
Seahorse glyph
A seahorse can be seen in Walter's Monty Python trip.
Connection
Olivia has excellent aim in "Bound"; she killed Loeb's wife with a single shot to the head. It's stated in "Olivia" that Fauxlivia won an Olympic gold medal for marksmanship.
Item of interest
When Walter explains that his red/blue lensed glasses were created by his friend from Washington, Doctor Jacoby, he's referencing the television show 'Twin Peaks' which also had an eccentric man of science, Doctor Jacoby, who wore red/blue lensed glasses very similar to Walter's.
Apple glyph
The apple glyph can be seen on the backrest of a chair in the lab.
Connection
In "And Those We've Left Behind" Peter picked up the same toy plane (perhaps not literally the same) that he played with in "Subject 13".
Item of interest
The Fringe team is part of a full-fledged branch of the Department of Defense in the Redverse.
Butterfly glyph
A butterfly can be seen on a lampshade near the front of Olivia's apartment.
Connection
Walter looked at Peter's coin in "Novation" from the night Peter died in "Peter".
Item of interest
In his dream at the end, young Peter is in bed wearing a jersey with the number 96 on it. The number 96 is the same jersey number that Joshua Jackson wore as Charlie Conway in the Mighty Ducks trilogy.
Butterfly glyph
The butterfly glyph can be seen on the wall in the diner where Olivia and Lincoln meet.
Connection
The intense amount of Cortexiphan coursing through Olivia in "Brave New World (Part 2)" was able to heal her mortal wound. This was foreshadowed in "Brown Betty" when Olivia was sliced by the same weapon that killed Rachel, yet instead of dying Olivia's skin started to heal itself.
Item of interest
Marshall Bowman had a disk in his hand like John Scott and the woman in 'The Ghost Network'.
Flower glyph
The flower glyph can be seen on the wall in Karen Truss's house.
Connection
Bell was unwell and needed oxygen in Olivia's memories in "Momentum Deferred" which could be because he had lymphoma as Nina revealed in the alternate timeline in "Brave New World (Part 1)".
Item of interest
One of the envelopes Peter sorted through said "Thank you for your support!", a direct message from the creators of Fringe to all the fans.
Seahorse glyph
A seahorse can be seen hanging from the taxi when Walter listens to music.
