TV show quotes
What you said before. I know what it's like to have a hole in my life. It's been there as long as I can remember. I told you about the incident on the plane? After that Broyles asked us to join Fringe Division, and somehow I knew that this is where I would find --
What?
My answers.
What you said to John about your stepfather? You were trying to open him up.
Yes. It's also true.
So what happened to him?
My stepfather? I killed him.
He knows what she taught him, but he can't remember who she is. How is that possible?
At the risk of sounding sentimental, I've always thought that some people leave an indelible mark on your soul. A mark that can never be erased.
[About his and Olivia's visions of Peter] A shared vision like this… He must be real! And if he’s real… We have to find him!
Belly always theorized that the cortexiphan children would share a psychic link; a deep emotional bond because of their shared experience. Maybe this person is trying to reach out to you and the harmful side effects are unintentional.
Why me and why now?
I can't answer that, but I can say that some of the children didn't handle the treatments as well as you did. Some had adverse reactions emotionally. You were always the strongest. The others recognized that. You were always their favorite.
[bandaging Walter's hand] I'm sorry. Does that hurt?
Not as deeply as my pride. Mysophobia. I haven't had an attack in years.
It's curious, don't you think? The things that we see, that we investigate, and you don't bat an eye. Some harmless germs make you shake in your boots.
I suppose it is. Elizabeth, my wife, used to say I was a man of contradictions. She liked that about me. I liked everything about her. She committed suicide, did you know? After our Peter died. I'm glad she never knew me like this. I'm afraid of things I can't even see.
Walter, I don't think I'm going to get much sleep tonight, either. What do you say to a rootbeer float?
Walter, do you think we destroyed it? Do you think it's gone?
I can't be sure, Olivia. What you did may have compromised Cameron's ability. He may have just displaced it. You acted against all reasonable agreements and expectations. You behaved irrationally with regard to only your intuition and instincts.
I guess I did.
When I do that people say I'm crazy. I suppose I've learned that crazy's a lot more complicated than people think.
Hey, Olivia. This photo of the girl with the riding ribbon, is that you?
Yeah.
Okay. You're going to have to do better than that. Why does Nina Sharpe have your photo in her office?
After our mother died my sister and I were due to go into the foster system. Instead, Nina pulled some strings and we went to live with her.
So the acting CEO of one of the richest companies in the world is your nanny.
Something like that.
Walter, I know how strange this all is, how hard it must be for you, but I don't know what to do. Nobody remembers me here. Olivia looks at me like I'm a stranger; like she's afraid of me. I know what you're capable of. I need your help, Walter, to fix this.
Every day for the past twenty-five years, I've tried to imagine what you would look like as a man, my son, but I don't deserve this. I don't deserve you. I realize now this is my punishment. You were sent to tempt me, to see if I would repeat the mistakes of the past. You shouldn't be here.
Walter, no.
Wherever you came from, however you got here, it doesn't matter. I can't help you.
Walter, you don't understand.
I tried to help a boy. A version of my son twenty-five years ago. That boy was never my son, and neither are you.
[Peter's dream sequence]
[smiles as Peter strokes her face as she lies on the grass, eyes closed] I thought I'd gotten rid of you.
[laughs] I don't think so. It took three years until I finally got you. You're not getting rid of me that easy.
Where'd you disappear to?
I was checking up on Walter. He found the swing set, and you know how he feels about Newtonian mechanics. [he smiles as they watch Walter swing]
You know what this is.
The perfect day.
Yes. The perfect day.
What's the problem Olivia?
It's you, Peter. You are the problem.
[Alarmed, having suddenly noticed an Observer, draws her gun and begins speaking simultaneously with September. ] Who are you? Show me your hands! How did you -- stop doing that! Who the hell are you?
I have come to tell you something, Olivia.
How did you know my name? How do you know my -- [notices a chest wound] You've been shot.
I came to tell you I have looked at all possible futures, and in every one the result is the same: you have to die.
I lost a partner!
I lost a UNIVERSE!
I can't say you're gonna get his full attention, per se. He's a little wired up today. He's already electrocuted himself three times.
Which reminds me, I can't feel my urine response yet. I should probably go empty my bladder again.
You care for him...like a father. My father...I cannot get the thought out of my mind that...that I couldn't give him what I wanted...because of...the way that I am. That he secretly wished I could love him back in a way that he could understand. Do you think if I were more like you he would have love me more? If I was normal?
[memory/dream sequence]
I love you. Do you love me?
I do.
Tell me. I want to hear you say it.
I love you.
