Still, although it was short, it does serve a great purpose and raises lots of questions for the future of the series.

The sneak peak trailer for this episode let us know that Season 1 villain David Robert Jones ( Jared Harris, who's since gone on to be a series regular on Mad Men and is currently in Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows) was back, but unfortunately the trailer's footage was almost the entirety of the character's scant seconds of cameo. Then there's the big guest appearance we've been waiting for. Is Walternate really trying to have Peter offed, or is it someone else? What's the deal with the shapeshifters? Can we really trust that Walternate isn't behind all this? He is, after all, an "untrustworthy son of a bitch" as Olivia #3 calls him. In the midst of all this quick action is typical Fringe mystery. This could be the beginnings of a genuine partnership between the two universes, but there's still much story to unravel. This is reminiscent of a while ago when Alternate Charlie and Lincoln had suspicions about their boss as well.

But then we find an interesting secret – this Brandonate is a shapeshifter! The whole government might be full of 'em, and Walternate claims innocence.Īlternate Lincoln and Fauxlivia end up suspecting their boss is hiding things from them, and start investigating on their own. It seemed he might be fixin' to zap Peter. But there's something suspenseful about the scene as Walternate retrieves an odd little device from a safe and cradles it ominously. We've already had several versions of Walter/Walternate meeting an adult Peter, so the emotional juice in that idea has run dry. The Peter-Walternate meeting is short, and necessarily so. After a reunion with his alternate mother, Peter shows up at Walternate's office. Peter and Lincoln are on the Other Side and already caught before the episode is halfway over. The plot moves very quickly, with Peter enacting his plan to get to the other universe at whirlwind speed. There are plenty of stunning developments in this story and lots to praise, but at the end we're left with one major question: where the hell is this story going? Pacing has been a problem with previous episodes, but it's not an issue here.
Several songs are performed 'live' by a house band covering another musician's work season 1 would be the only season where this occurs, as later it became common practice for the original artist to make a guest live appearance.Brian Ray's " Today's a Beginning" was written exclusively for season 1 of the show.The season also features a large number of Latin salsa, mambo and merengue tracks, highlighting the diverse cultural makeup of Miami. Most of the music featured is light, popular fare, in line with the overall light tone of the episodes, and there is an emphasis on tracks that were hit singles at the time - in contrast to later seasons, where much of the music featured would be more obscure.
Season 1 of Miami Vice introduced the show's trademark style of highlighting important scenes with music, and featured 75 songs during the course of its 22 episodes.
