You know, I think "stand alone" episodes may hold clues about the mysteries and mythology in future episodes.
Case in point, Astrid, in Johari Window: Walter passes along to us,almost as an aside,that Astrid is a lepidopterist, a specially educated expert in butterflies.
When the importance of that dawned on me, IT BLEW ME COMPLETELY AWAY!
Flash!!!...this may be important! We've seen a man killed by butterflies. Kind of reminds me of Jim Morrison's words,"I want to hear...the scream...of the butterfly."
One of the glyphs is a butterfly. Butterflies are seen on n Fringe and all over the place on the official website. So butterflies are significant.
Astrid is significant! Astrid's education in butterflies is NOT a mere coincidence! Something BIG is coming on Fringe for Astrid. She's just waiting in the wings, in the wings,in reserve,for the right time for Jasika Nicole to show her stuff!!! Right now, speaking metaphorically, , she's in a chrysalis, or cocoon.
Nobody knows yet, how STRONG, gentle,meek Astrid really is. Though it may be a dated phrase, it applies. YOU GO GIRL!!!
Am I the only one to discover who she might be and whats comin' down the pike?

Fringebinge On Astrid's name 4 Jun 9 2009, 11:55 AM EDT by will233

I suspect that Astrid's name is an allusion to Astrid Larsson in The Emberverse series of books set in a post-apocalyptic world where an event called "The Change" has rendered electronic devises useless.

RYNOBIG How long til she dies? 6 Dec 17 2008, 3:22 PM EST by sirpuddingfoot

She seems like an expendable character, but the topic I want you opinion on is when does she die (in number of episodes) and how does she die?
