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
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
Olivia entered "Martin Luther King/Eldridge Cleaver Memorial Park" which has a plaque quoting them as saying "We have a dream" rather than "I".
Flower glyph
The flower glyph can be seen as Olivia and Shapeshifter Charlie fight in the alley.
Connection
A flashback at the end of "Grey Matters" revealed that it was William Bell who removed the pieces of Walter's brain. In "Over There (Part 2)" Bell said he removed the pieces at Walter's own request due to fears about the man he was becoming.
Item of interest
The crane that crashed during the intro has a Massive Dynamic logo on it.
Leaf glyph
A leaf can be seen on the bio-scan monitor at the Liberty Island security checkpoint.
Connection
Jones stole a very powerful energy cell from Nina's arm in "There's More Than One of Everything." In "Enemy of My Enemy" Jones was trying to locate and steal a similarly powerful energy source, amphilicite.
Item of interest
Walter's pose as he listens to the Mozart Requiem is a reference to the iconic Maxell tape advertisement from the '80s.
Apple glyph
The apple glyph can be seen on a door in the pocket universe.
Connection
Windmark probed Walter's mind so forcefully in "Transilience Thought Unifier Model-11" that it caused blood vessels in Walter's eye to pop. In "Liberty" Michael resisted Windmark's mind probe, and possibly probed Windmark's mind back, causing blood vessels to pop in Windmark's eye.
Item of interest
The Child's happy expression drops when he sees the Observer.
Hand glyph
A hand can be seen on the wall when Olivia and Peter attack the Observers and Loyalists.
Connection
Patterns drawn on cards from David Robert Jones's box of tests for Olivia in "Ability" bear a resemblance to the stasis runes used in "Brave New World (Part 2)". Very little is known about either.
Item of interest
Donald entered the mine 5 weeks after the invasion and took some rocks. He was described as being in his late 30s, medium height, dark hair. Donald said he was waiting for "a colleague, a scientist from Boston, to meet him." Observers found him and took him away.
Hand glyph
The hand glyph can be seen on the piano stool in the Orpheum Theater in the Redverse.
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
William Bell left Massive Dynamic to Walter.
Seahorse glyph
A seahorse can be seen on the Bishops' refrigerator.
Connection
September was labeled as "Mr. X" on Walter's computer in "The End of All Things", the same name that fans used to refer to the man Peter freed in Olivia's mind in "Lysergic Acid Diethylamide".
Item of interest
The opening crawl is an homage to Blade Runner.
Flower glyph
The flower glyph can be seen on the wall in Karen Truss's house.
Connection
There was a white tulip in Walternate's bedroom in "Immortality" when he was struggling with what he had to do to save his world, suggesting that the symbol has meaning for him just like it did for Walter in "White Tulip".
Item of interest
Jones said there are 10 tests for Olivia in total. The first was a box of lights that Olivia had to turn off with her mind.
Flower glyph
A flower can be seen outside the entrance to the daycare center.
