Re #1, you may possibly be thinking of two characters from the S2 finale of Torchwood.

Did they just merge the Universes? WHAT?

Also, quick question: did anyone manage to count the Observers? Were there more than 12?

I really liked that for a couple of hours, this show went back to its roots about the enduring bromantic triangle between Walter Bishop, William Bell, and Drugs. (Have you seen the Fringe graphic novels? They're mostly the Adventures of Bishop and Bell, and they're great fun.)

The comparison's been raised elsewhere between this and another episode that aired on a Friday at 9 PM on Fox (The Attic, for those of you who've seen Dollhouse), and I feel like you hit the nail on the head there: in The Attic, Echo is leading the journey into the mind in hopes of leading it back out; in this episode, Olivia is the McGuffin--the reason for the whole Inception!Lite trip into her own head, but not an active participant until the final act.

The bleeding thing reminded me of the Blue Hands from Firefly.

Congrats on the delightful new banner, Mark!

I just finished a rewatch with someone else, and I'd like to point out that the lady hailing the cab in the cold open asks to go to the Schroedinger Motel, but we never find out where it is: we only get one cross-street. So between that and the Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead stuff, they were really hitting the geek references hard this week.
Also, it's entirely possible that it's just me, but did anyone else find that Alice Merchant bears an uncanny resemblance to Olivia Dunham aged upwards? I'm not suggesting that they're one and the same; just that, if I were casting Anna Torv in a movie where her character were portrayed in her eighties, I couldn't do much better than Phyllis Somerville.

For all two of you who watched Caprica, this chapter is where I started envisioning Beetee as Daniel Graystone.
