118 - “Midnight” transcript
Here is this weeks “Scenemaker” video released on the Fox Official Fringe website…

SPOILER ALERT
SPOILER ALERT
.
J.J. Abrams, co-creator of Fox’s sci-fi series Fringe, told SCI FI Wire that he’s confident the show will return for a second season.
.
.
“It should be returning,” Abrams said in an exclusive interview. “I’m really happy with so much of what we did this year. And I feel like we have barely gotten going. There’s so much that we know we want to explore and knew we did from the beginning. A lot of it is yet to come.”
.
thought that I had better slip these last images in before the new episode airs tonight. Perhaps there is a next episode clue or an Easter Egg or maybe nothing at all…you be the judge.

The Observer
.
A fantastic correlation between quantum physics and The Observer has been brought to light by pr3sidentspence. His original comment really got me thinking…
“In quantum mechanics there is a phenomenon where by observing the behavior of a system affects the outcome.
I think that the observer is directing chance/fate simply by observing the pattern.
OMG, I just realized that the same thought experiment used to explain this to students - the double slit experiment - produces what is called “the fringe pattern.” FRINGE - PATTERN!”

Nick Lane’s tattoo & scar
kemz (fat rabbit) asked aobut Nick Lane’s tattoo…here is a pic…
Tree tattoo
.
I looked up the actor, David Call, but I could not find out if the tattoo is real or part of the show. In case it is part of the show…here is what I found out about trees:
.
In the Celtic creation tradition trees were the ancestors of mankind. The Celts believed that trees had spirits and were living beings. Trees were symbols of ancient wisdom who provided the alphabet, the calendar, and entrance to the realms of the Gods. Trees were also associated in the Shamanic beliefs of the Druids and other Celtic peoples with the supernatural world. Trees were a connection to the world of the spirits and the ancestors, living entities, and doorways into other worlds. Celtic art often represented the branches and roots of trees as intertwined, a potent symbol of the interconnectedness of all life and the conscious and unconscious worlds.
.
Hmmm…interesting.
.
I will also take this opportunity to post an image of Nick’s scar…after all, it does look like a two. Maybe it’s the Next Episode Clue for “Midnight”.

Walter’s Video Tape
I would like to talk a bit about the video that Walter was watching at the end of the episode. Here is the dialogue from the video:
WILLIAM BELL: Is the incident contained?
FEMALE VOICE: Yes, Doctor Bell.
WILLIAM BELL: How bad?
FEMALE VOICE: Bad.
WILLIAM BELL: Casualties?
FEMALE VOICE: Not sure yet. We can’t locate Brenner.
WILLIAM BELL: Is she okay?
FEMALE VOICE: She is fine.
WILLIAM BELL: Hell, do we know what triggered it?
WALTER: Obviously she was upset, William. (to the child) It’s okay. It’s alright now. Nobody is angry with you. You didn’t do anything bad. It’s alright Olive… everything’s going to be okay.
.
The song ‘Nellie The Elephant’ was written in 1957 by Ralph Butler and Peter Hart. It was thrust back in to the spotlight over Christmas 1984 when ‘The Toy Dolls’ recorded an upbeat version of the track which reached number four in the festive hit parade.
.
For those who are interested, here are the full lyrics…
