Numerous Observers from the 27th century, having made the Earth uninhabitable in their own time, traveled through time to take over the Earth from humanity, instituting a Purge to kill off a large fraction. </p><p>The remaining humans are tamed in an <a href="/wiki/Orwellian" title="Orwellian">Orwellian</a> manner by the Observers and their human Loyalist collaborating soldiers, though an underground resistance still eludes capture by the Observers. A common scene used through this season is one where Peter, Olivia, and their young daughter Etta are enjoying a picnic on the day of the Observers' arrival and conquering of the Earth in 2015; Etta goes missing in this scene during all the confusion and destruction. </p><p>Walter had been warned of this by September before the Observers' appearance and, with his help, devised a plan to defeat the Observers in the future, scattering key elements across various locations and leaving messages for the future on video tapes in his lab, which he then encased in amber to protect their discovery. September "partitioned" the plan in Walter's brain to make it impossible for anyone to retrieve without the use of a thought unifier, a piece of Observer technology. </p><p>Walter, Peter, Olivia, Astrid, and William Bell purposely ambered themselves soon afterward. They are recovered by Etta Bishop, revealed to be Peter and Olivia's adult child who had gone missing during the Observer invasion, and while a Fringe division member, also working with the underground along with Broyles. </p><p>Walter is soon captured by the lead Observer, Captain Windmark, who puts him under a vigorous memory scan that destroys Walter's memories of the plan, before he can be rescued. Despite this loss, the Fringe team consider clues left in the lab, and come across the tapes. They painstakingly recover each tape and follow its instructions, gathering the elements, including the (apparently) young Observer child first encountered in season 1 ("Inner Child"), later named Michael by his protectors. They find that an unseen man named Donald had helped to hide these elements with Walter. </p><p>Meanwhile, Olivia and Peter work with Etta and the underground to combat the Observers, but in one encounter, Windmark catches Etta and fatally wounds her; Etta counters by triggering an anti-matter device that wipes her and several other Observers and Loyalists out. Olivia is shocked for several days at the loss of her daughter, while Peter is enraged and, at one point, uses an Observer implant on himself in order to understand how the Observers work to enable him to get revenge on Windmark. This would have soon caused his brain to sacrifice areas dedicated to feelings and emotions in order to increase space for intellect and logic, which is what happened to the Observers originally - and would have been an irreversible process. Olivia finally manages to talk him out of it. </p><p>Michael proves difficult to communicate with, but after working with Nina Sharp at the cost of her life, they gain technology that can aid in communications. Michael reaches out to Walter, flooding his mind with memories, and revealing that the man Donald is really the Observer September. They are able to locate September, now more human due to his "biological reversion" by other Observers for aiding Fringe. September reveals the full extent of the plan: to use the parts to construct a time machine to send Michael forward in time to 2167 as to stop an experiment in human genetics that would lead to the creation of the Observers. September further reveals that Michael is his "son", grown in the future from his genetic material but had his maturation halted when it was discovered that his brain is different from other Observers' — capable of both superior intelligence and deep emotions. September helps Fringe to gather the remaining equipment, and reminding Walter that he will need to sacrifice himself for this plan. </p><p>As Captain Windmark and the Observers close in, Michael allows himself to be captured and taken to the high-secure facility on Liberty Island; Olivia takes Cortexiphan to allow her to jump to the parallel universe, travel safely to the open Liberty Island there with the aid of her doppelganger Fauxlivia and her friend Lincoln Lee, and jump back in the same manner. Though Michael is recovered, September finds the core initiating reactor for the time machine is insufficient, and pleads with December to get a new one from the future. Though December does so, he is caught and killed by the Observers. Astrid has the idea of using the wormhole-based shipping lanes as their conduit to the future, and the plan is quickly altered for this. Peter learns of Walter's plan to sacrifice himself to take the child into the future, necessary to prevent a time paradox. September offers to take Michael instead, having come to appreciate his role as a father, but he is shot by a stray bullet as they set up the wormhole, while Olivia, enhanced by the Cortexiphan, uses the power to smash Windmark between two cars and kill him. Walter recognizes his fate, and after looking back to Peter and Olivia, takes Michael through. </p><p>Time flashes back to the 2015 picnic, and the invasion of the Observers never occurs. On returning home, Peter finds a letter from Walter, containing only a slip of paper with a drawn white tulip. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Episodes">Episodes</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Fringe_season_5&action=edit&section=6" title="Edit section: Episodes"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">See also: <a href="/wiki/List_of_Fringe_episodes" title="List of Fringe episodes">List of Fringe episodes</a></div> <table class="wikitable plainrowheaders wikiepisodetable" style="width:100%"><tbody><tr style="color:black;text-align:center"><th scope="col" style="background:#A3C1AD;width:5%;color:black"><abbr title="Number">No.</abbr><br />overall</th><th scope="col" style="background:#A3C1AD;width:5%;color:black"><abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> in<br />season</th><th scope="col" style="background:#A3C1AD;color:black">Title</th><th scope="col" style="background:#A3C1AD;color:black">Directed by</th><th scope="col" style="background:#A3C1AD;color:black">Written by</th><th scope="col" style="background:#A3C1AD;color:black">Original air date</th><th scope="col" style="background:#A3C1AD;width:7%;color:black"><abbr title="Production">Prod.</abbr><br />code</th><th scope="col" style="background:#A3C1AD;width:10%;color:black">US viewers<br />(millions)</th></tr><tr class="vevent module-episode-list-row" style="text-align:center;background:inherit;color:inherit"><th scope="row" rowspan="1" id="ep88" style="text-align:center">88</th><td style="text-align:center">1</td><td class="summary" rowspan="1" style="text-align:left">"<a href="/wiki/Transilience_Thought_Unifier_Model-11" title="Transilience Thought Unifier Model-11">Transilience Thought Unifier Model-11</a>"</td><td style="text-align:center"><a href="/wiki/Jeannot_Szwarc" title="Jeannot Szwarc">Jeannot Szwarc</a><br /><a href="/wiki/Miguel_Sapochnik" title="Miguel Sapochnik">Miguel Sapochnik</a></td><td style="text-align:center"><a href="/wiki/J._H._Wyman" title="J.

Their leader Edwin explains that the group has been recording history since the takeover by the Observers. Inspecting an abandoned mine mentioned on the tape, the team find a shaft, and in it, a corpse showing extreme signs of the skin infection. Walter determines that the condition is caused by the Observers' modification of the Earth's atmosphere; gases in the mine accelerated the process, calcifying the body. Edwin discovers that, sometime in the past, the Observers took away a man, identified only as "Donald," who had retrieved red-colored rocks from the mine for "a scientist from Boston." Walter begins to prepare a protective suit allowing them to recover more rocks. Etta is warned that Observers are on their way to capture the team. The only way to get the materials for the suit is to barter with another refugee camp. Edwin gives Peter and Olivia false directions to that camp while he enters the mine alone to recover the rocks. By the time Walter and Etta discover this, Edwin has brought enough rocks out, while he succumbed to the calcification.

Walter and Astrid extract another tape for part of Walter's plan, describing the reversibility of particles. The necessary information is hidden in a subway station in Observer-controlled Manhattan.

On her way back, she is tricked into stopping her truck and captured by two men who want to collect the reward for her. She manages to kill them and escape with the magnet.

The other Observers took Donald's implant away and reversed his genetic modifications, making him completely human. They want to kill Michael because they consider him a genetic anomaly: He is at least as intelligent as them, but he also has feelings. Donald explains that the genetic modifications that led to the creation of the Observers could be prevented if Michael was sent to 2167 as living proof that greater intelligence is possible to achieve without sacrificing emotions. The timeline would thus be changed; the invasion would never happen. Exactly that is the plan that was developed by Donald and Walter. Windmark travels to 2609. He asks his superior for permission to erase the Fringe team's interference from the timeline, but that is considered too risky. In 2036, Donald has been tracked down, and the team has split up. Donald secretly tells Walter that he, Walter, will have to sacrifice himself for the plan to work. Then Donald stays behind while the rest of the team travel to a monorail station and board a train, avoiding Loyalists searching for them.
