- After the extraordinary turn of events that shockingly left an imprisoned Olivia "over there," she fights to find her way home. Meanwhile, Peter and Walter try to move on with their lives unknowingly alongside alternate Olivia.
- Brandon follows the orders of The Secretary and injects drugs in Olivia to brainwash her to convince that she is the Olivia from the parallel universe. However she succeeds to escape from her imprisonment on the Liberty Island and swims to Manhattan. She abducts the taxi driver Henry and forces him to drive to the Opera House expecting to return home; however the place is quarantined. Then she heads to the Massive Dynamic and finds that the company does not exist in the alternate universe. Meanwhile the Fringe Division is assigned by The Secretary to hunt Olivia. What will she do?—Claudio Carvalho, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
- On the other side, a psychologist tries to convince Olivia (Anna Torv) she's created the fantasy that she's from an alternate universe.
The psychologist shows her a photo of her mother and Olivia says the woman looks like her, but isn't her. Then photos of Charlie Francis and Lincoln Lee (Seth Gabel), Faux-livia's partners.
Of a picture of herself, she says it's another Olivia Dunham, the one from here. She acknowledges it sounds preposterous, but it's the truth.
The shrink asks about Peter (Joshua Jackson). She explains her team crossed over to bring him home. She assumes they had to go home without her.
Olivia tells Dr. Anderson (Gabrielle Rose) her mother died when she was 14, Charlie Francis was murdered and she never won an Olympic medal for marksmanship.
Walternate (John Noble) watches footage of Olivia's interviews. He's upset the transfer of memory isn't working. He wants to try again, even if it might kill her.
They need Olivia to help them understand her ability to move through universes so they can win the war between them, Walternate says.
They come for Olivia in her darkened cell.
A guard marches her down a hall, punching a code into the elevator. She's strapped to a table. She asks the doctors not to do it again and we see half a dozen needle marks like the one they're making on her arm. She starts gasping, saying she can't breathe. They unstrap her to sit her up. She grabs the needle from her arm and jabs it in one doctor's neck. She fights off the other and runs down the hall. She knocks out a guard with a chop to the windpipe and takes his gun. She punches in the code for the elevator and makes it outside. She runs into the wood as lights and sirens go off around her.
She comes to a cliff and sees the NYC skyline opposite. She looks back and sees she's on Liberty Island. She jumps.
Manhattan A sopping wet Olivia gets into a cab driven by Henry (Andre Royo) and aims her gun at him. As he drives, she tells him the honest truth: she was being held against her will by a division of the government which has been experimenting on her.
He doesn't want any trouble. She asks for his ID, his Show Me card. She looks at his address and tells him to buy her some clothes, or she'll make trouble for him.
Department of Defense Hospital
Lincoln Lee rehabs from his burns. Charlie visits him. They think Faux-Olivia is in the hospital and Olivia made it back to the other side.
Anti-Broyles (Lance Reddick) tells them about Olivia escaping.
In the cab, Henry asks Olivia about her neck tattoo. It's news to her. Henry's having a hard time believing her.
He asks when they're going. "You're taking me home," she says.
Lincoln wants to go help find Olivia -- he's got six hours left before he has to get in the hyperbaric chamber.
Henry takes Olivia to the Opera House. She says if she's not back in 15 minutes, he can leave. She recites his ID to prove she knows where to find him.
There's a protest against "amber" in front of the Opera House. A cop stops her, but then recognizes her as Fringe Division Agent Olivia Dunham. He won't let her in because "protocol is already in effect." A cloud envelops the Opera House and it hardens to amber.
Fringe Division, NY Someone reports Olivia was just seen in a cab leaving the Opera House. She's not sure what to do next. Henry takes a call from his wife.
He asks her if she has anyone. She says "sort of" then says his name is Peter and he's sort of the reason she's there.
Suddenly she asks him to take her to Massive Dynamic. First they stop for gas. She takes his keys and goes to the restroom. She looks at her neck tattoo, sort of like a small sun.
She goes into the stall and sobs.
Outside, Henry looks at the photo of his wife and child.
Olivia walks out and finds Lincoln waiting. He tells her he knows about the shoot out at the opera house and she took a bump on the head. He's trying to reason with her when she pulls her gun on him and tells him to put his down.
"Whatever they told you, I am not who you think I am," she says.
She marches him into the bathroom and barricades him in.
An SUV pulls up and two men get out, firing at her. She tells Henry to drive and gets in the car. Charlie Francis blocks her path but she shoots and takes out a gas tank behind him to get away in the explosion.
"You're a hell of a shot," Henry says. "Actually, I'm not," she says. (But Faux-Livia is, hmmm.)
Henry rips out the cab's tracker.
Walternate watches the footage and admires her sharpshooting. "There's only one person at Fringe Division who can make a shot like that," Broyles says.
"It's working," Walternate says.
Henry pulls up to the Massive Dynamic address, but it's not there. It's a park.
"I'm stuck here," Olivia says.
Above her, a Zeppelin flies by.
Henry joins her and she directs him to another address she calls a "safe house."
Charlie drops by Frank's place, Fauxlivia's man.
Talking about Peter to Henry, Olivia accidentally calls him Frank.
Charlie asks Frank if there's anywhere Olivia could be.
Henry's cab pulls up in Tarrytown, New York. He offers to wait for her, but she tells him to go home. He tells her about his wife believing in him when he was in a bad spot years ago. "Sometimes you just gotta believe in what you can't see," he says. He drives off.
Olivia rings the doorbell of the quaint suburban house. She goes around back and opens a window to get in. She hears music. She takes out her gun and follows the sound. The dog doesn't react when he sees her. The pictures on the mantle are all of her.
A woman says: "Olive?" "Mom?" Olivia says.
Her mom (Amy Madigan) says she knows about her breakdown. Olivia pulls away and says she's not her daughter, her mom died when she was 14. She says she's never been there, but her mom asks how she knew to come there.
Olivia looks around and "remembers" helping her mom pick the yellow paint. Her mom hugs her again, saying it's her home, her "safe house."
Charlie knocks on the door. Olivia sits on the couch and says hi when she sees him.
Back at Fringe, Walternate tells the doctor the treatments worked.
He thinks the adrenaline from her escape helped cement the transfer. "For all intents and purposes, she is our Olivia now," he says.
Charlie drives away with her. Henry sits in his cab outside and watches.
Olivia rides with Charlie, calmly. She thanks him for being her friend. "Thank you for not shooting me," he laughs.
Walternate tells Broyles she should be OK to work on Monday. He won't tell Broyles what he's up to with her.
We jump over to our universe.
Peter tells his story to someone on Capitol Hill who takes notes. He tells him how Walternate misled him. The man says Peter could have stopped Walternate by staying there and asks why he came back. Cut to Faux-Livia outside with Walter.
Peter joins them. He tells her the whole time he was in there there was only one thing he could think about. He kisses her.
