The Fringe team investigate when a pair of dead teenagers are found along with a strange organic object. Walter discovers that the object is a Shapeshifter in its original form, deformed as a result of the unstable method used to travel between universes. Two more Shapeshifters have also arrived, and after taking the forms of the teenagers they make contact with Newton and put a new plan into action that involves planting devices in specific locations around Boston. At the same time, the Fringe team discover that an errant signal from the alternate universe has also crossed over along with the Shapeshifters: from it, Brandon and the Massive Dynamic team are able to determine that within a day and a half of the Shapeshifters' arrival, the two universes will be "in sync". The Fringe team realise that when the universes are in sync, Newton will attempt to bring something over from the other side.

Walter revives the deformed Shapeshifter and before it dies, it gives the name of its target, a local doctor. Another Shapeshifter victim turns up, a bank manager, and Olivia theorises that both individuals had been targeted for their access to particular locations. Walter guesses that Newton is attempting to set up three harmonic resonance devices in a triangle that, when activated, will swap the matter in the centre of the triangle for the matter located in the same space on the other side. From the locations they have, the Fringe team identifies the most likely location, a condemned bridge where Newton is in the process of setting up the machinery that will activate the rods and begin the process.

Fringe Division arrives just as the universes come into sync and the rundown bridge begins to swap places with the intact bridge from the other side. Walter and Peter have a device that will stop the matter transfer if set up near the centre of the resonance, fearing that Newton is planning to bring over an army of soldiers or Shapeshifters, and Peter sets it up despite Walter's warnings that anything too close to the centre of the resonance during the transfer will be disintegrated. As the transfer takes place, Peter sees a man appear on the bridge and leave via the opposite end -- entering the prime universe -- before he gets the machine working. The energy of the transfer disintegrates a nearby FBI agent, but Peter is merely thrown against a car and knocked out.

The man from the other side escapes with Newton, who helps the "Secretary" to recover from the journey in a secret location. Peter wakes up in hospital a day later. He's figured out that he didn't disintegrate for the same reason that the man from the other side didn't disintegrate: they're both from the alternate universe. Walter tries to explain but Peter demands that he leave, angrily claiming that he's not Walter's son. Later, Olivia discovers that Peter has checked himself out of hospital and ditched his phone, disappearing off the FBI's radar.

\nThe Fringe team investigate when a pair of dead teenagers are found along with a strange organic object.

case. Two teenagers were found dead, evidently killed by shapeshifter agents from the alternate universe. Exploring the nearby area, they find a third unformed shapeshifter, which Walter tries takes to explain the lab to study. At the same time of the teenagers' death, they find a carrier signal in the local television. With Massive Dynamic's help, they determine that the signal emanated from the alternate universe during a brief moment that the two universes were in sync, and that the next point of synchronization would occur the next afternoon. Recalling Thomas Jerome Newton's previous attempt to bring a building from the alternate universe into the prime, the Fringe team believes they must stop this next attempt.

From the unformed shapeshifter, they learn of a name of its potential target, a doctor at a local hospital. They take the man into custody
but Peter demands find that he leave, angrily claiming has yet to be harmed. Based on the need for three shapeshifters, Walter surmises that he's not Walter's son. Later, Newton is trying to use the same technology that he and William Bell had pioneered for crossing the universes, by placing three vibrational sources triangulated around the target. Walter begins to collect equipment to create interference with the vibrations to prevent the crossing. Another corpse is found, that of a bank manager that appears to have been killed by a shapeshifter. Realizing both men would have access to secured areas in their workplaces, they use these locations as two points on Netwon's triangle. From this, they are able to identify two locations where the transfer will occur. Olivia, using the information Walter has told her in private about his own crossing, identifies a collapsed derelict bridge over the Charles River, where the water would absorb the energy of crossing over.

The Fringe team converges on the bridge, where Newton has already started the process as the time of synchronization nears. As
Olivia discovers and the other FBI agent engage the two other shapeshifters in combat, Walter and Peter set up the interference device. Peter warns everyone, including Walter, back as he completes the interference device and the bridge, which still exists in the parallel universe, starts to appear with a man crossing it. The shockwave of its appearance disintegrates an FBI agent on the bridge with Peter but only sends Peter flying back and knocks him out.

Peter wakes in the hospital, learning from Olivia that they saw a man safely cross the bridge and taken by Newton. When Walter arrives to see Peter, Peter tells him he has realized the truth: because he, like the man on the bridge, was not affected by the same shockwave that killed the FBI agent, he must be from the parallel universe. Walter is unable to deny Peter's accusations. The next day, Walter is devastated to learn
that Peter has checked discharged himself out of hospital and ditched his phone, disappearing off the FBI's radar.
