It's interesting that in season 1, Walter had to win over Peter but now it's reversed and Peter has to win over Walter.

<3 Fringe

[MrPauliewalsh]

yeah he did, in the season finalle of last season

[Damon242]

But Walter didn't create the machine...  What is Peter on about!?

[sonecaboss]

@Damon242 Walter created the machine in the future and sent it to the past. In the season's 3 finale, Peter discovered that they were "The first people".

[Damon242]

@sonecaboss No, in the season 3 finale Walter reveals that he thinks that he is responsible for creating a paradox by sending the pieces of the machine back through time via the wormhole in central park.

Creating a paradox does not equate to actually creating the machine.

So unless there's something else in the upcoming episode to clear all of this, the writers of the show have just gone against the show's own mythology.

[sonecaboss]

@Damon242 You're right. But I'm sure that the writers will explain this better... They never disappoint me. We'll see in the next episode! Can't wait!!!

[Damon242]

@sonecaboss I hope they do.

@Damon242 Creating the machine, than sending it back does not create a paradox. What does however is that Peter initially destroyed the red universe, but in the future walter convinces him to do it different.

The finale is difficult to understand.

[Damon242]

@hekje12345 Ok...you seem to be confused by what has occurred in the series.

- rewatch the scene in the season 3 finale where Walter explains that he thinks the machine is a paradox that he is responsible for

- "creating the machine, then sending it back..." Walter never made the machine. That's precisely what I'm arguing about.

- "...then sending it back does not create a paradox" Actually, it does. That's precisely what a paradox is.

[Damon242]

@hekje12345 - "What does however is that Peter initially destroyed the red universe, but in the future walter convinces him to do it different"

That's not a paradox. And besides the fact that technically, with a paradox, Peter shouldn't have been able to change anything at all (the future is still the future no matter what action you take), Walter's plan was to have Peter try to get the universes to help each other fix the situation, therefore Peter made a bridge.

[Damon242]

@hekje12345 The bridge is not a paradox. And based on your comments, you may be confused as to the nature of a paradox/what it actually is and how it operates.

- "The finale is difficult to understand"

I'm just going to pretend that the sentence above is not incredibly condescending, and instead respond that it's not as long as you pay attention - which I did, and I'm already familiar with the concept anyway - that's how I identified that Fringe bent the rules.

WOOHH!! Fringe is awesoomee! :D
