just finished 6B and gosh, all the OTP feels
i'm at the beginning, i see this is a flashback episode
ok, something i still don't understand
child peter was very obviously aware that this wasn't his reality
he's supposedly 8 in these flashbacks, definitely old enough to remember
or does this episode address that
walter going to hypnotise him so he forgets
that a thing that's going to happen
... also man how long did these cortexifan trials go for
earlier episodes gave the impression that they only went for a little bit
but this child actress playing olivia is easily at least two or three whole years older than the previous olivia
previous flashback olivia has been like, 4. this girl's at least 6. THAT'S A BIG DIFFERENCE FOR A KID.
actually she looks more like 7 or 8...
actually tho that would fit in with my earlier theory tho that walter hypnotised peter into forgetting he was from an alternate universe the
same way that he hypnotised the cortexifan kids to forget they were experimented on
well at least this answers my question of "how could peter NOT NOTICE that his universe was different"
.... wait this makes no sense
i thought walternate DIDN'T do the cortexifan trials on children in the alternate universe, that's why he was running tests on olivia at
the beginning of the season?!
ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh ok i get it
she ran into walternate's office
the continuity of olivia's age is still balls but at least that makes more sense now
playing full disclosure in the car
i'm sure this game will end well
oh olivia you and your trust issues
that was a very silly plot twist
that said, olivia's actress does the william bell voice very well
this dead dude is hitching a ride on my girlfriend not okay
olivia calling broyles "young man" with bell's voice
i was wondering when he was going to be introduced
lmao beta lincoln is so different...
oh alpha!lincoln

so in love with fauxlivia
accelerating olivia's pregnancy operation thing that's going on here
why are they administering the pain drugs orally?
they should be administering them directly into her body...
LOGIC
....................... ok no i can't take this labour seriously
LABOUR DOESN'T WORK LIKE THAT GUYS
NO BABY IS DELIVERED THAT QUICKLY
MORE BABIES WOULD BE BORNED IF LABOUR ONLY LASTED FIVE MINUTES
I CAN TAKE ALL THE WEIRD PSUEDO SCIENCE SHIT
I CAN ACCEPT PYROKINESIS AND TRAVELLING BETWEEN WORLDS AND TELEPATHY AND THAT ONE WOMAN WHO COULDN'T DIE
BUT FIVE MINUTE LABOUR IS WHERE I DRAW THE LINE
SHOW
"olivia, when she came back, wasn't it around the time that broyles disappeared?"
they're figuring it out
broyles is high and everyone is a cartoon?!
... awww astrid and broyles is really cute ...
okay so i wasn't imagining things / it wasn't a child actor availability problem
since this is only a couple of eps after the flashback episode
olivia was definitely in the cortexifan trials not for a few months but for a few years ...
god that's a significant chunk of your life to not remember ...
"i think he's the guy who's gonna kill me"???
i think i am going to stop there
for the night. and crash.
