Fringe S4E17 'Everything in Its Right Place'
IMDb sez: "Lincoln travels to the other side to join forces with
Faulivia and his own alternate, as they search for a vigilante with a surprising connection to the shapeshifters."
The glyphs for this episode spell out: DREAM
Another noticeable difference between the universes is pointed out when Lincoln mentions Batman to AltLicoln and AltOlivia who tell him that
their version of the billionaire crime fighter is Mantis. Despite the
cover of The Dark Knight comic that was previously displayed in Peter's
New York apartment.
In the parking lot attack scene in the alternate universe, there is a
sign that says "USSR." In our universe, the USSR was officially
dissolved in 1991, adding to the list of things which are different
"over there."
This is listed as a "Revealing Mistake": "In this episode, on the other side, they don't know who Batman is, and instead Batman is known as
Mantis.
Bell are shooting at the Fringe Division from the other side, right
before they switch Olivia's, there is a movie theater across the street
with a lot of different movie titles, one of which is titled 'Superman
VS Batman 2'."
But the movie was in an earlier timeline.ÿ When Peter linked the two and disappeared new timelines were created in both universes, so The Mantis could have replaced Batman in the new timeline.ÿ (Confused yet?)

IMDb sez: "Deaths appear to be happening simultaneously between
universes - violent deaths in one universe cause the same violent deaths
of the victims' alternates in the other. The two universes work together
to solve the case: in light of recent events, Lincoln has opted to
remain in the alternate universe with Fauxlivia for the present, and
Walter joins them to assist in the investigation on that side as Peter
and Olivia investigate in their universe. Astrid and Alt-Astrid bond
while working together at their impromptu communications hub. Meanwhile, Fauxlivia continues her mole hunt with renewed vigor."

Airport is still known as Idlewild.
Domesticated badgers are a common pet in the RED universe. Walter
delights in that fact when he sees "badger food" as a common pet food in
a grocery store.
Another difference between the two universes, Sherlock Holmes is unknown
or at least not widely known in the USA.

Dr. Walter Bishop: Several. Mostly recreational.
Dr. Walter Bishop: Domesticated badgers, really? As pets?

But which versions of "Suicide Squad" and "Justice League" do they
have?!? ;-)

What Did You Watch?
I watched:
Welcome to Wrexham - "Anything's Possible" - They've given up even >pretending the team isn't on a winning streak.
Sherlock & Daughter - "The Great Fleece" - Penultimate episode. Lots of >exposition dumps as they began to wrap everything up.
Suicide Squad (blu-ray) 2016 movie written and directed by David Ayer. >Picking up where "Batman v Superman" ends, Amanda Waller (Viola Davis) >decides to assemble a team of Thunderbolts, I mean a Suicide Squad made
of super villains to step in where heroes fear to tread. This was the >extended version which adds a bit more footage but is still basically
the theatrical cut as far as plot structure. Ayer has been very vocal
about how the studio took the movie from him and reedited it, saying his >director's cut is a totally different movie. I *really* hope to see
that director's cut one day.

Not much, as I focused on household chores.
soaps: DOOL - The "John Is Dead!!" (wait, I am sure I've heard this somewhere else before!....) tour continues. Ominously, Mon's ep gets a
"Part 1" title card - I have a bad feeling that the *entire week* is
going to be taken up with this! Anyway, this is John's funeral. I got
only two, maybe three, things out of this: 1) I had forgotten that Tate
and Ariana are cousins (can't wait until Tate finds out that Ari has
been boffing Doug III!), 2) it's subtly revealed that Kat is working for
the ISA(?) (stop trying to "save" this character! it's too late!!), and
3) Steve (Patch!) is retiring Black Patch - I have no idea what Steve
will do now that he's not PI'ing anymore.
The Last of Us (Max) - Ep's #2.4 & 2.5.
ÿÿ As predicted, this show is a *lot* less interesting after the developments in ep. #2.2.
ÿÿ In fact, this show is quickly devolving into a "The Walking Dead"
clone (and, FTR, I did *not* like "The Walking Dead"!).
ÿÿ Anyway, there was a lot of stupid in here with Ellie and her new girfriend (Isabela Merced, nee: Moner), and with the Seattle stuff (with both the "militia" people and the "cult" people being wholly
unsympathetic).
ÿÿ At least there was a tiny bit of payoff at the end of ep. #2.5, when Ellie finally gets some righteous revenge! REVENGE!! against one of the
team she's been hunting, both slowly turning her into a fungus zombie
*and* torturing her for info.
ÿÿ Just two more episodes to go. Clearly, they are not going to in any significant way tie up season #2's storylines by the "finale", though
I'm guessing Ellie is going to finish off Seattle and turn them all into fungus zombies before this is done.
ÿÿ Sidenote: Josh Peck (Josh from "Drake & Josh"!) pops up here for a
quick second as a red shirt!!
