The last episode of Season 4 seemed to be a bit too easy. First of all, Belly (Leonard Nimoy) is nuttier than a Christmas fruitcake. So his actions are based on his playing God. He's dying and so what he does really only leaves behind a goofball world, but he won't be there. Unless, of course, Walter can pull a bullet out of his head. Now we have Olivia who has suddenly used that stuff in her body to perform all kinds of cool things, but it also keeps a bullet from killing her. Of course, Walter digs around in her head and finds it. There was some suspense, but we knew they couldn't just let her die (which, by the way, would have been a truer and more believable ending--and a true sacrifice). If you read any of my reviews from any of the shows I've reviewed in the past, you will know that I hate weddings and childbirth as a cheap way of getting audiences all gaga. At least an Observer shows up to push us into Season Five. We already know from the futurist episode that this leads to some problems.
