An unofficial companion to Fringe
Glyphs, easter eggs, buried clues, behind-the-scenes videos, thematic connections, and more, catalogued episode by episode with screenshots and timestamps.
Connection
Walter stole Bell's hand in "Letters of Transit" to gain access to Bell's personal storage unit in "Five-Twenty-Ten".
Item of interest
The episode opened in "Manhatan", seemingly a typo but actually signifying this was an alternate Manhattan.
Frog glyph
The frog glyph can be seen as Olivia and Shapeshifter Charlie fight in the alley.
Connection
In "The End of All Things" September told Peter about Henry, the son he never knew existed, who was born in "Bloodline".
Item of interest
When Walter explains that his red/blue lensed glasses were created by his friend from Washington, Doctor Jacoby, he's referencing the television show 'Twin Peaks' which also had an eccentric man of science, Doctor Jacoby, who wore red/blue lensed glasses very similar to Walter's.
Flower glyph
A flower can be seen outside the entrance to the daycare center.
Connection
Olivia had a horse-riding ribbon in Nina's old photograph in "Novation". Nina rode horses herself in "The Cure" so it stands to reason that Olivia would have done so as well in the timeline where she was raised by Nina.
Item of interest
There are 'Wanted' billboards for the Fringe team.
Seahorse glyph
A seahorse can be seen outside the entrance to the daycare center.
Connection
September loads his food with heat (pepper, jalapenos, hot sauce) in "The Arrival" because his emotions are dulled, as he explained in "The Boy Must Live".
Item of interest
Bell stole Walter's David Bowie album 'The Man Who Sold the World', which describes what Bell did multiple times for his own benefit.
Seahorse glyph
The seahorse glyph can be seen as Olivia and Shapeshifter Charlie fight in the alley.
Connection
The Glatterflug ad for daily flights to the moon in "Olivia" is the same air travel company as Flight 627 from "Pilot".
Item of interest
The Fringe team is the First People. Walter sent the parts of the machine back through time via the wormhole in Central Park. That's why the First People had such a knowledge of Peter and Olivia.
Frog glyph
The frog glyph can be seen on a door in the pocket universe.
Connection
The entire story of Fringe started in "Peter" when Walter crossed worlds with a boy that wasn't his because he couldn't stand to let Peter die, and the entire story concluded in "An Enemy of Fate" when Walter crossed worlds with a boy that wasn't his knowing that by doing so he would never see Peter again.
Item of interest
William Bell's name is partially faded/scratched off of the door to the lab.
Apple glyph
The apple glyph can be seen as Olivia and Shapeshifter Charlie fight in the alley.
Connection
Olivia has excellent aim in "Bound"; she killed Loeb's wife with a single shot to the head. It's stated in "Olivia" that Fauxlivia won an Olympic gold medal for marksmanship.
Item of interest
Jones said there are 10 tests for Olivia in total. The first was a box of lights that Olivia had to turn off with her mind.
Hand glyph
A hand can be seen outside the entrance to the daycare center.
Connection
Right before Alfred Hoffman grabs an apple from the Bishops' refrigerator in "The Bishop Revival" there is a Rubik's Cube with three greens and one red on its side, a reference to the 'green-green-green-red' pattern from "The Equation".
Item of interest
Marshall Bowman had a disk in his hand like John Scott and the woman in 'The Ghost Network'.
