I reserve the right to post at greater length on why Fringe is some of the best television of my lifetime, but this moment from last friday's episode is particularly amazing, but it requires some setup if you're not familiar with the current plot. In short summary:
Peter is Walter's son. Except Walter's real son, Peter-1, died in childhood, so Walter stole Peter-2 from an alternate universe in the 1970s. Peter-2 is the biological key to operating some kind of mystery doomsday device that was left behind by an ancient civilization, and is currently stashed away in a secret FBI/military compound.
So the lead bioscientist at Walter's science corporation, Dr. Falcon, is running tests on Peter to see what precisely makes him the only thing that seems to activate the doomsday machine, which theoretically can destroy an entire universe. Peter is played by Joshua Jackson. Falcon. Joshua.
