* BluffTheImpostor: Peter confirms that Fauxlivia isn't his Olivia by mentioning the Greek phrase under TrustPassword and that it's something an old friend told him. When she doesn't recognise it (or that it was his late mother who first said it) he knows for sure that she's a fruad.

* BedTrick: Fauxlivia and Peter

* EquivalentExchange: In order to get Fauxlivia back, the alternate universe needed to swap an equal mass. Since Prime Olivia was no longer available, Colonel Broyles was used instead. Unfortunately, since Broyles was larger than Olivia, something had to give…

-->'''BARTENDER:''' Oh, no, no, no. Your money's no good here, sir. Times are tough. It's nice to know we have heroes.

-->'''COFFEE VENDOR:''' Here you go. Best coffee West of the Passaic.

-->'''BROYLES:''' If there were anyone I would bet on to survive over there, It would be her.

-->'''SECRETARY BISHOP:''' Only one world can survive. And finally we have made strides so that it can be ours.

-->'''BRANDON FAYETTE:''' Alive or dead? How do you want to send back their Olivia? Alive or dead? Because I feel there are very valuable parts for study and I would just have to replace her mass.

Olivia was able to cross over back to her universe long enough to warn Peter she is trapped in the alternate universe. After receiving the message, Peter tests the Fauxlivia, by telling her the Greek phrase ''Na einai kalytero anthropo apo ton patera tou'' (roughly, "be a better man than your father"), which Olivia told Peter in the [[FringeS02E01ANewDayInTheOldTown "A New Day in the Old Town."]] When Fauxlivia fails to recognize the phrase, Peter's suspicions are confirmed. Realizing she has been exposed, Fauxlivia forces Peter to inject himself with a paralyzing agent. She then goes to a typewriter store in the Bronx to request an extraction.

In the prime universe, Peter subtly quizzes Fauxlivia and confirms that she isn't the prime universe Olivia. She realises that her cover has been blown, gives Peter a paralytic and leaves his apartment with her laptop. When he recovers, Peter informs Fringe Division of Fauxlivia's identity and that she and him were in a relationship. They realise that Fauxlivia accidentally took Peter's laptop by mistake, and hand it over to forensics to crack her passwords. Fauxlivia visits the typewriter store and contacts the alternate universe, requesting an extraction. As the Fringe team try to figure out what Fauxlivia's next move is, Astrid spots a clue (the pastries that Fauxlivia kept bringing Walter) that indicates Fauxlivia had been visiting the Bronx, nowhere near her apartment, Walter's lab or the Federal Building.

Peter, Walter and Broyles go to the Bronx and look around. Peter finds the typewriter shop and recognises his laptop, left behind by Fauxlivia, and calls Fringe Division to investigate. They find the typewriter -- a quantum entanglement device -- in the back, and are able to read the last message sent from the other side, indicating that she'll be extracted from a train station at 4pm. As Fringe Division heads to the train station, Fauxlivia arrives and meets with a Shapeshifter, who injects tiny devices into both of her hands and the base of her spine. The Fringe team arrives and discover Fauxlivia holding a woman hostage, but when the woman doesn't respond to her daughter, Peter realises that she's a Shapeshifter and kills her. Fauxlivia is captured, but before being taken to a prison transport, she tells Peter that [[BecomingTheMask she's really grown to care about him during her time in the prime universe]].

At the same time, Olivia is being held in solitary confinement in the alternate universe. Walternate plans on using her as part of a mass transfer to return Fauxlivia to the alternate universe, but not before cutting out her brain in order to further study her cortexiphan ability. When Broyles visit, Olivia tries to convince him that the two universes aren't at war (contrary to Walternate's arguments) and that she can help stop the conflict. He debates the issue and asks his wife for guidance, but eventually Broyles decides to help: he breaks Olivia out of her cell and brings her to the DOD lab. They discover that Walternate has been synthesising cortexiphan using what he's learned from her brain -- and what's more, Walternate emptied the tank, so Olivia can't use it to cross over. She has the idea to return to Walternate's old abandoned lab at Harvard University and use the old sensory depravation tank. As they arrive, Broyles reveals that the alternate universe Fringe Division is tracking them due to the tracker implanted in him, so as soldiers arrive to stop them, Broyles buys Olivia time to get in the tank. She successfully crosses over to the prime universe and emerges from the tank in Walter's lab, to Astrid's astonishment.

In the prison transport, the devices implanted in Fauxlivia's hands and spine activate. At the last moment, Walter realises that they're resonating rods, part of Walternate's mass transfer method for travelling between universes. Fauxlivia is transported back to the alternate universe, and the team discover -- to their horror -- that she's been swapped with the mutilated body of Broyles from the alternate universe.
