| They Are Here |
Here are some quick notes from episode 5.01, Transilience Thought Unifier Model-11.
- Astrid's Scrabble words include GALIUM and HOPE.
- There is an alarm clock in the graffiti. Might be something or might be nothing. Bells maybe?
- The names of two businesses in the city streets can be made out: Steele's Public House and Chester Market & Deli. Relevant or random? We'll see.
- There was a neon angel above the black market. UPDATE: Aha! This was foreshadowing. There is an "angel device" in the following episode, "In Absentia".
- The robotic dog in the black market looked a lot like Muffit II from the original 1979 Battlestar Galactica. Just sayin'.
- Walter mentions to the Japanese woman in the market that he fell in love in Japan and almost got married. Could that be the blue universe counterpart of Reiko, Walternate's girlfriend from the alternate universe?
- Walter wrote science fiction? I can't wait to read that!
- The observer at the door tells our heroes that resistance is futile, which is not the first Star Trek reference in Fringe.
- When the cops approach the getaway van in the alley, the letters EAN LUC GOD can be seen on a sign in the background. That's a reference to film director Jean-Luc Godard. I assume he's included becasue he directed Alphaville, which also featured an urban dystopia.
- The license plate number on the van was 8752104.
- When Olivia is freed from the amber, there are framed butterflies in the room. Butterflies are a recurring image in Fringe.
- Having come back only yesterday, Walter looks out from the window above and spots a CD causing the reflection on the wall above his bed. He plays the the CD in the taxi and the song is Only You by Yaz. I hope they make eighties music a recurring theme this season. Because that would just be cool.
- The taxi has a seahorse figurine. Seahorses are a recurring image in Fringe.
