Favorite scene or quote?
Nick S: Come on, it has to be "These aren't the droids you're looking for." Followed closely by "We are insurgents, and this...is antimatter. You're smart, you do the math." One of the great things about alternate futures is that a show gets to be both more zany and more epic, and in this episode, they did both.
Sean: I agree with Nick, there were so many great Walter quotes and I loved, "These aren't the droids you're looking for." Honestly, the episode was so cool in showing us the future (possible future?...

Season one of Fringe can only be described as procedural. Sure, each case was connected by the thread that was the Pattern, but for the most part, we were treated to stand-alone cases that were like CSI plus melting brains. That's not a bad thing by any means; Fringe was so well-written and had strong enough characters that each episode was a clear development on the last, making for a brilliant season.

Episode Title: "Fracture"
Written by: David Wilcox
The Story: An apparent suicide bombing takes place in Pennsylvania, but there are no traces of explosives. The strange incident sends Agent Olivia Dunham (Anna Torv) and Peter Bishop (Joshua Jackson) across the globe to Iraq to solve the deadly mystery. At the same time, Olivia struggles with her continued memory loss, currently manifesting in the form of vicious headaches. In the end, an important clue is revealed about a familiar bald character with a penchant for spicy food.
Head Trauma: This mystery-of-the-week completely redefined the meaning of brain freeze as these suicide bombers -- former American soldiers unwittingly dosed with a foreign agent -- exploded into millions of crystallized pieces. That was pretty wild. Also, Olivia's continued search to recollect her memory kicked up just a couple of notches -- specifically, she got some red flickering flashes of her meeting with...
