Glyphs, easter eggs, buried clues, behind-the-scenes videos, thematic connections, and more, catalogued episode by episode with screenshots and timestamps.
Connection
In "And Those We've Left Behind" Peter picked up the same toy plane (perhaps not literally the same) that he played with in "Subject 13".
Item of interest
William Bell left Massive Dynamic to Walter.
Flower glyph
The flower glyph can be seen on a door in the pocket universe.
Connection
Walter said that Nancy Lewis looked familiar in "The Road Not Taken"; her name is on a height chart in the daycare center where the Cortexiphan trials took place in "Jacksonville".
Item of interest

Butterfly glyph
The butterfly glyph can be seen near Lincoln in the rail yard.
Connection
Parts of Officer Gillespie from "Fracture" were seen in Walter's storage vault in "The Bullet that Saved the World".
Item of interest
Windmark visited his boss, The Commander, in 2609.
Seahorse glyph
The seahorse glyph can be seen on the back of one of Markham's books.
Connection
The intense amount of Cortexiphan coursing through Olivia in "Brave New World (Part 2)" was able to heal her mortal wound. This was foreshadowed in "Brown Betty" when Olivia was sliced by the same weapon that killed Rachel, yet instead of dying Olivia's skin started to heal itself.
Item of interest
There are 'Wanted' billboards for the Fringe team.
Flower glyph

Hand glyph
A hand can be seen on the wall when Olivia and Peter attack the Observers and Loyalists.
Connection
James Heath, a Cortexiphan subject, couldn't control his abilities in "Olivia. In the Lab. With the Revolver.". In "Over There (Part 1)" he had been trained to cure disease instead of cause it.
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.
Flower glyph
The flower glyph can be seen as Olivia and Shapeshifter Charlie fight in the alley.
Connection
The super-sized cold virus from "Bound" was used as a weapon against the Observers in "An Enemy of Fate".
