S1 E15Unfinished Business

For a catastrophic explosion like that I imagine he has some sort of surgical implant. Dental surgical crowns, if they were to resonate at just the right frequency… I always hated dentists.

Belly and I spent days discussing the distant crossing the line. 'Only those who could risk going too far can possibly know how far they can go' was what Belly used to say.

… this type of auditory phenomenon, taken to its ultrasonic extreme, can be fatal, and the way it affects the brain, it could well have induced some type of vegetative trance before death… silent but deadly. Speaking of which, you might like to take a step away! (to Peter)

[speaking of Olivia] She can move between worlds. We discovered some ways to cross over, but each comes with their own dangerous consequences, but she -- she can cross without harm.

[appearing to Olivia in a vision] You know why you didn't die today, right? Because you didn't know the protocol. If you had stopped for oxygen, you'd be dead right now, but you did something that he couldn't factor in. You kept running. You know why you did that. It's the same reason why you thought you saw Walter in the hospital. It's the same reason you think you see me now. You're not from this world, Olivia. You're not her.

You're not real.

[smiles] Real is just a matter of perception. I am here, and I'm a part of you that you have to hold on to. You can't forget who you are, Olivia. You can't forget where you're from. You can't forget this. [kisses her softly]

Dear God. How can you be so limited? When William Bell created this company, he knew one thing to be true. Brain and the mind are capable of so much. Don't you see that the brain is consciousness, hmm? The mind is god! There are no limits, except for those that we impose on ourselves. Open your eyes. Open, open. Inspiration is everywhere. Do you know how lucky you are to play in this sandbox?

Olivia Dunham has agreed to submit to the tests developed by Science Division. As I've said, these tests are stressful. If she becomes unstable in any way --

ABAlt-Broyles

If I see any unusual behavior, I'll let you know.

Nature doesn't recognize good and evil, Philip. Nature only recognizes balance and imbalance. I intend to restore balance to our world. Whatever it takes.

[speaking to Olivia in a vision] It makes sense now, doesn't it? Why they needed you to take that test voluntarily. Why they needed you to believe that you were their Olivia. They know you can cross over. You've done it before. That's how you ended up here in the first place.

[speaking to Olivia in a vision] You know why you let him go, don't you? It's because you can understand what he's going through. Trapped in that amber, just like you're trapped over here. The only difference is, nobody's going to save you. Only you can save yourself. You listened to me about the case. I don't understand why you won't listen to me about this. Why do you refuse to believe who you are? Why do you want to deny the truth about yourself?

You can't prove anything!

But I know things.

You're in my head.

Exactly. Which means you know things, too. Things about the other side. Things you couldn't possibly know unless you'd been there. Unless you were from there.

Like what?

On the other side the Twin Towers have fallen. On the other side your sister Rachel is still alive. She lives in Chicago, her husband took a job there. They live at 1934 Sherman Way.

See, now you're lying, because we hate Chicago --

On the other side your beautiful niece Ella is alive. She was born and it's her birthday today. She turned seven.

There's no way to prove it.

Yes, there is.

You are continuing to work on this infernal device; the one depicted in the blueprints!

That's correct. I'm running diagnostics.

I thought I made my position clear. I do not want to find out what its purpose is! You have no idea what it does! You might as well be building a nuclear bomb in my lab!

I don't think that's entirely fair, do you?

Well, fine! If you end up breaking the universe, this time it's on your head!

The human brain is a miracle. Our most resilient organ. A storage unit for almost everything you have ever known, seen, felt. It's all still in there, whether or not you're conscious of that.

But it's hard to forget, isn't it? You know, I can imagine what it must have been like for you... how scared you must have been, how much you-- you would have wanted to get back to your family and to your friends.

Dr. Bishop, any thoughts to how she would cross to the other side?

No. Nothing. And I have no idea how to bring our Olivia back. It's all because of that temptress! She tricked my son with her carnal manipulations and he fell right into her vagenda!

Vagenda?

Like Mata Hari, using her feminine wiles to accomplish her evil ends, and I, too, fell prey. She used my stomach to get through to my heart.

I'm sorry, Olivia.

Don't apologize. You were the only thing that got me through. If it wasn't for you I would never have made it back. You saved my life.
