1. Yes, Walter owns Massive Dynamic. Still eccentric and funny as ever.

2. Walternate's plan is basically to get Peter to figure decipher the ancient device blueprint and figure out how to incoroporate the lost component devices.

What I'd like to know is how did that midget get to the tunnel with the box opened? I mean, he was affected like everyone else. Did the trance force them to act a certain way?

3. I'm not disappointed with Olive's actions vs the deaf guy. She did what I expected for someone in her position. She is freshly thrust into our world, still fully loyal to Walternate, and Newton explicitly warns her not to get distracted or sympathetic.

Besides the physical similarities, they have completely different skills and personalities. Olive is an expert marksman with a more uninhibited personality. Olivia has photographic memory and is more reserved and brooding.

This episode was indeed excellent. I am now even more intrigued by this so-called "ancient tech". Where did it come from? Does it belong to the Watchers? ahhhhhhhh the possibilities!
