Week 7! Thanks so much for all your contribution!
This week I’m writing about quite a few scenes from FRINGE. The tribute for one of my favorite shows of all-time. It will be dearly missed and never forgotten by all the Fringies like me.
Show: FRINGE
Episode: An Enemy Of Fate
Date: January 18, 2013
Actors: Entire Cast
Category: Emotional
The Scenes:
NOTE: This scene was also picked by Lisa Macklem and Sharon Seymour as Scene of the Week!
Windmark’s death - I absolutely loved the entire sequence of Windmark’s fight with our heroes, from the moment Peter attacks him till the part where Olivia uses her ability to kill him. For Etta! The second when Peter and Olivia are losing and suddenly she notices her daughter’s necklace and the power inside her just explodes is phenomenal. There really are no words that could fully appreciate this scene. It’s just so powerful and emotional. And brings a lot of satisfaction for our characters and the audience.
September getting shot and Walter and Michael going through the wormhole – The last scene of Walter in the show. I can’t imagine not including it.
But the explanation why, I’m going to leave to Darth Locke, who has also chosen this part as The Scene of the Week.
"Most people will probably feel that Peter receiving the White Tulip is the most significant scene, but to me the actual ending of Fringe, IMO is left to the viewer to decide the fates of the characters, which I find not very resolving and too open-faced for my preference. I chose this scene instead, because of the great parallels of Walter still in some way repeating himself, as taking Michael was like taking young Peter, yet also stepping in the role of Peter by going to another time to try and save the future ("The Day We Died"/"Peter and the Machine"). John Noble's performance was again one of the best, as Walter looks looks at Michael kneeling an playing "Greenseeves" to September as he lays dying, takes Michael's hand and walks with him into the bright light, but not before looking back at our gang....If I am to believe or hope that there is a better future for all of them, and that September lives, and Walter will meet his family again one day, and that Peter and Olivia remember something, and the meaning of the Walter's sacrifice of the white tulip is not lost, then it is this scene, the action of this sacrifice that makes it mean those things."
Last scene of the show with Peter, Olivia and Etta, and White Tulip part– It’s just such a lovely, happy moment when we see how this time Observers don’t invade and Peter finally catches his daughter with Olivia smiling in the back. Truly a happy ending for our characters. And then of course, Peter receiving the letter with White Tulip is a wonderful nod to the fans and also leaves hope and an open ending for everyone who wishes to add their own, favorite continuation to this amazing story.
