Why the Presence of Walter Would Create a Paradox?
10 April 2017
Warning: Spoilers
September asks December to bring an initiating reactor to complete the time machine. Then he meets Walter, Peter, Olivia and Astrid and explains how the device works. Peter finds a farewell video tape from Walter addressed to him. Olivia and Astrid go to December's apartment to bring the initiating reactor but they find him hanged and the part taken by Loyalists and The Observers. Astrid suggests to use an Observer shipping lane instead. Olivia and Peter go to the Observer's headquarters and use chemical gas to retrieve a control cube to use the shipping lane. They also rescue Broyles that was interrogated by Windmark. Now they start to set in motion the plan to defeat The Observers.

Despite the flaws, "Fringe" is certainly one of the best TV series ever made. The stories are great, with the combination of adventure, sci-fi mystery and drama. Most of the characters are charismatics, and Walter is amazing. And the producers stopped the series in the summit, keeping the level of the episodes. "Lost", "Smallville" and "Prison Break" are examples of TV series that should have stopped a couple of seasons before the last one. The open end with Peter watching to the white tulip is a plus. However it is not clear why the presence of Walter in 1985 would create a paradox. Maybe because September saved him from the frozen lake, but it is not clear enough. The plot has many paradoxes, but who care? Keeping Walter would be a complete happy ending, with Peter, Olivia, Etta, Astrid, Nina Sharp and Broyles. But anyway "Fringe" has surprised with this amazing and emotional Fifth Season. A feature of "Fringe" would be a return with golden key for the fans. My vote is ten.
