So as I loved "Peter" so muchI was checking out people reactions. I saw someone commenting on the CGI age transformations on John Nobel and Blair Brown saying that "Nina Sharp" looked like "Molly Dodd", Brown's character from the sitcom/drama The Days and Nights of Molly Dodd. When Fringe started my parents remembered watching and liking Molly Dodd so I finally got around for searching clips on youtube. WOW Very a head of its time.

So back to the episode- it was good to see again. I am taking this to mean that she lied about her arm having cancer. Cancer is easier to explain than what happened there. Also how attached to Peter was she early on? I am totally intrigued. I've like the few Peter/Nina scenes we've had thus far, and what ever this is adds to them.

Also I am intrigued to figure out what her involvement with the founding of Massive Dynamic is as she was already working for Bell twenty five years earlier and Bell and Walter were together but no longer lab partners.

The interesting thing about the Peter/Nina dynamic also is that Peter still owes Nina a favour if I'm not mistaken. It's a thread that goes back to season 1, but I do hope they pick it up again one day I really liked seeing more of Nina, I had actually been missing her presence so it was great to have her back!

BOK

Well, now we really know what happened to her hand

I had forgot that

Nina loved Peter... awwww..

Addison Montgomery

Yeah, we do know the truth about her bionic arm now!

I loved to see Nina again and young Nina wasn't different from the Nina we already knew. She was really destroyed for Peter's death. There must be something behind it.

Anyway, she should get more screentime. <3

BOK

Exactly what I thought it seemed a little too to be just random, and in Fringe, nothing is random

Addison Montgomery

Yes, exactly. Maybe knowing why Peter is special will clarify why Nina cared about Pete that much.

BOK

Yes, or maybe she just had a stronger relationship with Walter and knew Peter way too well. Nothing romantic, just friendship or something

killed the lights

OMG YES the favor! I'm sureeee that won't be forgotten.


And I loved finally seeing what happened to Nina's arm! I kinda had a gut feeling all along that it wasn't cancer. And I hope we figure out the relationship between Nina and Peter soon. I can't pinpoint exactly what it is ...

Addison Montgomery

Yes, surely there's something more between Nina&Walter and the reason why she cared so much for Peter.

BOK

^ All I'm saying

And yes, I think cancer was too common for this show

killed the lights

^Haha! I think I kind of just accepted that it was cancer, until I read either a spoiler or the episode description which said that we were going to find out what REALLY happened to Nina's arm, and then I was like "wellll, guess it wasn't cancer."

BOK

I knew it wasn't cancer, I don't know why, but I didn't think they would end up addressing what happened so soon.

Seersha

OK, so Nina has a history with Walter, Bell and Peter... there is also more to her dynamic with Broyles... then there is Olivia too. Nina has just got so many connections it's crazy, and interesting and I totally want to know more.

I loved seeing her in tonight's episode, sparring with Olivia. I think she was starting to be a bit too 'sweet' or 'helpful' around Olivia, so it's nice to see Nina back to holding her own

killed the lights

YES I love Nina, she's one of the most interesting characters to me. I loved seeing her in tonight's episode. I think Nina knows how Olivia feels about Peter, and vice versa. And that scene with Broyles at the end was very interesting too ...

Addison Montgomery

I was glad to see Nina last night but damn she's such a mistery! She's connected to almost everyone and she knows a lot of things.
I def want to know the whole truth about her!
