The most important question why are they using VHS tapes, you stand a better chance with dvds. Who even has a working VCR

It's actually betamax per Walter.

If peter is purchasing the necklace for Etta why isn’t his brain focused on the transaction. If you think about how much to give to the other guy it would keep your mind from drifting off

That sequence was a little strange. It's SO hard to block being read by Observers, but Peter did well enough to ger away simply by "thinking about baseball." It's either super hard to do or it's not.

I would have to agree about the observers not knowing the future anymore, otherwise that observer would have seen the gas can coming. The question is what happened to this ability.

I'm wondering if the whole Peter/reset thing maybe changed something? Or maybe only the high-level Obs can see all timelines (like Windmark, September, and that small group that they used to meet with). Maybe "regular" Observers can only do things like read minds and whatnot.

Where was Broyles before he became a loyalist, by his own admission he had to learn to block his thoughts like everyone else

I assume Broyles just never stopped being head of Fringe division. But that begs the question of why Peter, Liv, et all weren't allowed to still be there. I am hoping those things become more clear as the episodes go along, because as of right now, I have questions about the current timeline and the way things are:

- If Broyles is still in Fringe division, why weren't Peter, Liv, Walter, and Astrid?
- What caused Peter and Liv to split up? (this one bugs the shite out of me)
- How long after the invasion did Peter and Liv split up?
- How long after the invasion did they branch off from the Fringe division?
- Surely someone like Windmark has to know that this group is the one that September has been helping this whole time, so with their connections to Broyles, why is Broyles trusted?

Stuff like that..

Was Windmark ever in the warehouse at the end or did he just wait outside.

He was in the warehouse when he shot Etta. Then he left, and then sensed that they were going back for her so they went back in there...that's when he saw the anti-matter genade and peaced the frick out and morphed outside.
