Fringe: Nope, Take the Quick Way Home

All of season three so far leads to... this?! Fauxliva goes back to The Other Side. Olivia, aided by alt.Broyles, comes back to Our Side. And no one gets hurt. Well, except for alt.Broyles who for helping Olivia gets replaced by a shape-shifting doppelganger. Everyone is back where they should be, albeit with a bit more information about the other's dimension.

Here's a nagging question... given that Olivia and Fauxlivia were basically improvising their respective ways home by the end, due to a series of complications, how did they both manage to do it within a couple of hours of each other? Oh, right. 10 cc of dramaticexpediencium.

Honestly, this has to be the most anti-climactic climax since Fringe began. The Olivia of two worlds story fizzled this week, faster than the John Scott or Newton storylines.

Cue the outraged message-board geeks who were counting on some Torv-on-Torv catfight action.
