Now we know what drives Olivia, but how far will it take her.

We learned a little more about Peter. He’s done some business with a techonology-shy race of people in Central Peru for some hyperconductive alloy native to the area. And he’s not afraid of Nina, but I think he realizes her danger.

No mention of his health issues this episode, but we learned that Nina knew him as a child. More proof of an experiment? It appears that she and Walter were quite close in his pre-mental institute days.
My favorite Walterism of the night:
When he uses Mr. Papaya, he says “it’s upsetting since he’s the friendliest fruit.” Walter gets this attached to a fruit, but he has no problem exploding the heads of some spare hamsters!
Exactly. How far WILL Olivia go. She’s prepared to do what it takes to fight injustice (leap across buildings, barge into the room of a dead girl, enter dream-states without a second thought). She’s gone to the Fringes of her being, but will she cross the line completely? Can’t wait to find out.
The Nina/Peter connection was one of the most intriguing things to come out of this episode. I can’t wait to see where they take it.
HA! Good point about Walter. He’s so morally skewed, but somehow he gets away with it.
