Discussion: Peter is the alt-universe's Olivia?

"And here's why I think it might be the case.

1. Bell said it's impossible for people to cross-over unless they're special, a la Olivia. Well, Peter's here too.
2. Wouldn't it be safe to assume alt-Walter/Bell would've done their own version of the experiments? And since there's no alt-Olivia that we know of, is it not possible that Walter did the experiment on his own child? Perhaps the whole war was started because alt-Peter, the strongest like Olivia is in our world, was stolen.
3. We all want him to be more than just a sidekick, no?

In any case, I really hope they'll give him a better story. Being a misunderstood genius can only go so far."

"ezfx, it's been explained that the other side can't travel to this world w/o risking damage to themselves yet. That's why they're sending the hybrids. If you were a father, would you risk your son's life again by sending him across the veil once again?"

"Let's not forget that Olivia also seemingly woke up in the hospital when Peter entered the room and sat beside her. Coincidence? Hm.

And the greek phrase is also very interesting. William Bell specifically told Olivia to tell Peter that phrase and that he would know what it meant. here's what I found online regarding this phrase.

(quote)According to Peter, the phrase means "Be a better man than your father."

However, I am fairly sure that the injunction, as spoken by Olivia (and repeated by Peter), ended with the phrase "πατέρα του." These Greek words translate as "his father" -- not "your father." The phrase "your father" would, I believe, be expressed in Greek as "πατέρα σας." (/quote)

His father. As in the other Peter's father. So perhaps William Bell is trying to get Peter to discover his origin and perhaps prevent this war (well, it has to mean something anyway).

This phrase also begs the question, "Is Peter's mother still alive in the alt-universe?" And why does she speak Greek? :)"
