The Fringe team investigate a series of murders in which people have collapsed into dust -- a case identical to one that Broyles tried and failed to solve years earlier. They discover that a Russian cosmonaut came back from space with a paranormal organism in his body that can astral project and feed on people's background radiation.
to:
A Boston man is attacked by a shadowy, ghost-like figure; his wife returns home to find he disintegrates into ash upon being touched. After learning the victim had recently visited a hospital before dying, Agent Broyles explains the case is similar to one he was unable to solve in the past, in which his obsessive behavior effectively ended his marriage to his wife Diane. The suspect, an Eastern European man, had contacted him four years ago sounding distraught and asked him to figure out a special formula, which Broyles was unable to do. Walter and Peter study the victim's remains at their lab and begin studying the formula given to Broyles.
Several more people are attacked and reduced to ash. A search of Eastern European employees leads them to Russian night nurse Tomas, but he is gone when they search his apartment. Despite being ordered to end the investigation and that the suspect is wanted by both the Russian government and the CIA, Broyles tells Olivia to continue the case. Walter posits the entity needs radiation, and chooses its victims based on their exposure levels. They learn that Tomas stole his comatose brother, a former cosmonaut, and has been moving him around to both protect him and contain the entity. Fearing capture, Tomas removes his brother from the hospital; Walter speculates that the cosmonaut brought the entity back with him upon returning from space. Walter is finally able to solve the formula, and Broyles sadly tells Tomas over the phone that his brother and the entity cannot be separated. However, during their conversation, the entity escapes his brother's body and kills Tomas. The Fringe teaminvestigate a series of murders in which people have collapsed into dust -- a case identical is able to one that trace the call, and Broyles tried shoots the host in the head to stop the entity from attacking another victim.

* LifeDrinker: An interesting variation. The cosmonaut is bonded with some sort of alien entity that consumes radiation inside people's bodies, and turns them to ash in the process. The more radiation, the more likely it is to follow you all the way home.
