“Entrada” is definitely the episode we’ve all been waiting for. Olivia (Anna Torv) is now back home where she belongs. It’s been a long time coming too. We were able to see a softer side of Broyles (Lance Reddick) during this episode and in last week’s as well. He was thankful for what Olivia did to save his boy’s life and he certainly took a leap of faith by ultimately sacrificing himself to get her home. Though with Broyles dead “over there”, there may not be much of a voice of reason to combat Walternate’s (John Noble) madness about seeing the destruction of the other universe.

I thought Peter (Joshua Jackson) was excellent in this episode. Not only was he doing something about his suspicious feelings about Olivia after the bizarre phone call, but he was quick to figure out Olivia’s plan for sneaking out of the train station with another shape shifter disguised as a hostage. Kudos to him for his quick-thinking.

Although Olivia is back, it’s got me wondering where things go from here. Peter and Olivia have been through a lot and as I alluded to earlier, there’s a lot of drama about to take place now that Broyles is dead “over there.”

The writers deserve a pat on the back for this episode. I was hooked despite numerous distractions around my house at the time. I wasn’t about to be pried away from the television!

Rating: 8.6
