*** This review may contain spoilers ***

Doing yet another show of repeats we saw in the pilot a man transforms into a monster on a plane and causes it to crash killing plenty. The fringe teams investigates and discovers who the man was, apparently he has something to do with the people who Olivia saw before who were involved with the first act of experiments that lead us all to this ride. They find his partner, and of course he becomes a monster soon enough. Olivia asks to be put back into the tube where she has much longer conversation with John Scott, her ex lover. John tells her a lot and that she was mislead, he wasn't on their side to begin with.

I really wish I could've gotten into this episode but my mother was sick and m other television set was broken. But despite the problems taking me away from enjoying this episode more I still thought it was well done. the character development for John was was fantastic add-in to his own POV. That and the acting was very good however I feel Lance Reddick tried a bit too hard to be theatrical here.

Tonight's episode should be better for me.

7/10.
