Henry Ian Cusick
It's a good thing this piece is running on Monday, because we needed a few days to recover from the Fringegasm that was last Friday's "Letters of Transit." Wow.
In keeping with the show's 19th-episode tradition of taking a break from blowing our mind with their usual storytelling to blow our minds with something completely different, this season's gear-shifting hour was a major win. Set in a dystopian 2036 where the Observers have take over, Fringe Division is just there to do their bidding and our present-day team has been encased in amber, this one felt almost like a prequel to Fox's late sci-fi series Dark Angel, except that it didn't fall apart in the second half of its run and there wasn't a single mention of Jessica Alba having cat hormones.

All hail the Observers!
Fringe takes a trip into the future in Friday's episode (9/8c, Fox). Lest we forget, it's Episode 19 for the season, which traditionally means it will be chock-full of craziness (See: Last season's switch from live-action to animation in "Lysergic Acid Diethylmide").
Fringe: Meet Henry Ian Cusick's secret agent partner
In "Letters of Transit," the future is not all it's cracked up to be since the Observers have officially taken over planet Earth, wiping out most of the human population. Similar to last season's finale, which ventured 15 years into the present, Friday's hour-long thrill ride will offer up a chance to see what life could be like if humans were at the bottom of the food chain, so to speak. To get acquainted with this version of the future, here are five things to expect:

OK, Fringe fans, did you crack the code? We posted the crazy fourth trailer for the April 20 episode, "Letters of Transit," yesterday and let you know it was embedded with the last clue to a secret URL for a fifth and final clip (other hints were buried in the three previously released trailers). Now we have the complete link and, surprise, surprise, it's not for another trailer at all. It's actually the opening credits to the highly anticipated 19th episode, which jumps out of Fringe's already out-there timeline for a futuristic tale guest starring...

Serve. Obey. Heed. No Hope. We're guessing Fringe is trying to say something and it's not just "Hey, Fox, renew us already!" Nope, this is all about #April20thIsTheNineteenth, the viral campaign centered on Friday's episode — the 19th of the season, which has traditionally been Fringe's craziest hour each year.
Over the last few weeks, three mind-boggling and super mysterious trailers have hit the interwebs filled with shaky clips from the Observer-iffic, future-set "Letters of Transit" and embedded with clues to a URL that will link fans to a final video that's sure to shake whatever universe you're watching from. But the collection is incomplete, folks... until now.
