I agree, this episode was not at the same caliber that I have come to expect from the show. I would be upset if the show was canceled. Personally, the first few episodes gave me a very x files vibe, but the last few seem to stray away from that to a more hellish conspiracy theory. I do think the episode was just one big set up, and hopefully next week picks up the crazy science plot that flew through the first few.

i just hope they find a better way to connect all the information proper to each episode of the show at the end, unlike jj abrams's Lost, which has already sunken into deep sh*t.. wtf is the pattern anyway? fringe science my ass..

The Episode was fine , maybe your setting your expectations too high and getting disapointed. The part with the apple i think the fomula the episode was based on, made the mans hand and also the apple to pass directly through solid matter ( the safe wall in this case ). so in a future episode we may see say a person walk directly through a wall to infiltrate some facility, and this would of explained why it was possible. and maybe the seahorse at the end will be a clue to a future episode, like this is not the 1st time we have seen the image of an apple before, i thought the apple was representing something else maybe it still does.

Hey, I don't fully agree with everything you said.. I like the show, its different than the rest of them. I do agree that sometimes it is transparent and corny and lame but usually, it keeps my attention. Last nights episode was OK... I thought it was building up to something much more revealing, but my real problem with last nights episode is that THE ENDING MADE NO sense to me! I mean the part with the apple in the safe.. He put in an apple, then pulled out an apple. How clever? Will you explain it to me please? Thanks!
