Peter meets Alter-Olivia who drives him to his new apartment. Walter and Bell go to Harvard to collect equipment needed to return home and Walter reveals his intense dislike for him, considering him a selfish war profiteer while he was locked away for 17 years and is still broken inside. Bell reveals the alternate universe equivalent of himself died in a car accident as a young man. Olivia confronts Alter-Olivia who recognizes that Olivia has feelings for Peter. After a fight Olivia knocks Alter-Olivia unconcious and poses as her. Peter discovers the machine is symbiotic and needs a particular human to control it: him. Olivia and an oblivious Alter-Charlie go to collect Peter to move him for his own safety. Olivia knocks out Charlie and reveals herself to Peter, as well as filling him in on the machine’s real purpose and Walternate’s intentions. Peter states he doesn’t belong in the other world or Olivia’s world. Olivia reveals her feelings for Peter, making him decide to leave together. They race to meet up with Walter and Bell at the Opera House, but Alter-Olivia and a team of Fringe Commandos catch up with them there. Bell and Olivia hold off the assault while Peter and Walter set up the dimensional device to return home. Without a fuel source to power the device, Bell sacrifices himself to create a nuclear reaction using his body’s unstable molecular state. Before dying he reveals that he took Walter’s memories away at Walter’s own request, with Walter telling him that he was wrong about him and forgives him. Olivia, Walter, and Peter return home successfully. Peter tells Walter he’ll never understand him, but Walter travelled into another universe twice to save him, which counts for something, so Peter forgives him. Olivia goes to the typewriter communication station to await orders and is revealed to be Alter-Olivia infiltrating our side.

Following the man’s movements through surveillance cameras throughout the city, the Fringe division discovers his identity: Alistair Peck, an astrophysics professor teaching at MIT. When the division and police raid his house, Peck returns home and they hold him at gunpoint. Walter finds out that Peck experimented on his body to convert himself into a living temporal pocket. Before they can stop him, Peck escapes and returns to the moment in the train, revealing himself to be able to use his body to time travel. Learning from his mistakes, Peck makes more modifications to himself, becoming more of an abomination. Walter discovers that Peck’s time travel caused the people in the train to die and theorizes that the professor may have experienced several loops, while Olivia understands why Peck is time-travelling; in order to save his fiancée from a car crash years ago. The division finds that Peck is hiding in MIT to perfect his work. Walter volunteers to go inside before the authorities move in and dissuade Peck from continuing his quest.

One day, Walter is told by his wife Elizabeth to come home and see Peter, with father and son sharing a conversation before Peter passed away. After Peter’s funeral, Walter witnesses his other self almost succeeding in creating a cure for his alternate son’s illness and sees the Observer September arriving to witness the important moment. Later, the Observers meet up to discuss September’s revealed existence to the alternate Walter and plan to fix things.
