Fringe: Season 2, Episode 2

2 - 2: Night of Desirable Objects

Fringe Division investigates a missing construction worker who was pulled to an underground tunnel filled with the remains of other people who disappeared the same way. The investigation leads to local resident Andre Hughes (John Savage), who lost his wife and baby in childbirth. When they exhume their bodies, they find the baby's casket is empty. Walter discovers that Hughes genetically altered the baby, which developed into a "superbaby" and began feeding on people. When Olivia and Peter are attacked, the tunnel collapses, and a car parked directly above the site crushed the superbaby. Meanwhile, Olivia develops super-hearing from her travels to the parallel universe. Nina Sharp calls her to meet a man, Sam Weiss (Kevin Corrigan), who can help with the effects.
