In "6:02 AM EST" Walternate trapped Fauxlivia in the same cell as Olivia was kept in in "Over There (Part 2)".
Item of interest
Donald entered the mine 5 weeks after the invasion and took some rocks. He was described as being in his late 30s, medium height, dark hair. Donald said he was waiting for "a colleague, a scientist from Boston, to meet him." Observers found him and took him away.
Seahorse glyph

An ambering device, first (nearly) used by the Blueverse Fringe team in "6B", was seen in Walter's storage vault in "The Bullet that Saved the World".
