Olivia Dunham was behaving oddly, even before Peter learned of her deception from Broyles. She seemed somewhat distracted of late. He asked to see her at the lab. They looked at one another in awkward silence. Olivia was the first to speak.

"I am not from here." She tilted her head to him.

"But you already knew that."

"I wanted to wait for you to make your move. What are you waiting for? What is your agenda?" With each sentence, Peter spoke even louder. Olivia looked away for a moment.

"I was under orders from the Secretary himself to bring you back."

"But you didn't go through with it. Why?"

"I didn't want to live with the consequences of the harm my actions could bring about.

"The last few days seemed like an awakening. I reconnected with a sister, I lost years ago and grown to love a little girl, who on my side did not even have a chance to exist.

"It made me homesick for the people I love."

Peter looked at her with renewed respect.

"Do you know what my father has done to Olivia?" She shook her head no.

Just then they heard Astrid's screams out in the main lab. Peter went out to see what was the matter. What he saw made the hairs on his neck stood on ends. Astrid followed his gaze.

"Peter. You see it too? Don't you?"

They both saw it. Olivia standing in the middle of the lab, only she appeared not altogether solid. Then almost as mysteriously, she shimmered out of existence.

"Astrid. What if..What if Olivia is...is trying to open a door on the other side? Is there anything we can do to help get her back?"

"Right. But we don't have any means to open a stable doorway."

"You might." This came from Olivia's double.

"You said that she was given the ability to see into my universe. Why not give me that ability? Inject me with Cortexiphan. I may be as predisposed to the drug's effects as she was."

Meanwhile, over there, Olivia was strained by the overuse of her new found ability. Frank kept a watchful vigil.

"Olivia. You've been at this long enough. It's making you sick." She came out of a trance-like state.

"It's alright. I think I got through to them this time." Frank wiped the sweat from her face.

"It was so close, I could almost reach out to them."

"Rest now." Frank insisted. Olivia conceded and laid down.
