“Of Human Action” had several of the elements that I enjoy in Fringe, but the fact that I was able to figure out that Tyler was behind his own kidnapping really hurt this episode.
There wasn’t a whole lot of mystery behind it. Every time something crazy happened Tyler was right there. It was clear that the supposed kidnappers were just there for the ride, so to speak.
Perhaps my favorite part of this episode was witnessing Walter’s reactions to the thought of not seeing Peter again. Another hint of Peter being the Peter from an alternate universe was dropped again. I can’t help but wonder when Walter will tell Peter about what he did and why. It’s going to be a heck of a conversation.
For the second time in recent memory, Fringe threw in a little surprise at the end. Nina Sharp’s earlier description of the drug trial seems to have been inaccurate. She in fact knew all about Tyler and the others. I’m glad they threw that in, but the episode was still fairly mediocre anyway.
Rating: 6.5
