The substitution of a new contract for an old one. The new agreement extinguishes the rights and obligations that were in effect under the old agreement.
A novation ordinarily arises when a new individual assumes an obligation to pay that was incurred by the original party to the contract. In the case of a novation, the original debtor is totally released from the obligation, which is transferred to someone else.
A novation also takes place when the original parties continue their obligation to one another, but a new agreement is substituted for the old one.
....could be alarming to viewers invested in the relationships between Peter and Walter, and Peter and Olivia, if this means they will just be acquaintances going forward. For myself, I choose not to believe that.
I like the feel of this better:
Quote :
1.The act of replacing one participating member of a contract with another. 2. The exchange of new debts or obligations for older existing ones. .... 1. All rights, duties, and terms are transferred to the new party upon consent of all parties affected.

I love Nina! "Maybe you've just been given a second chance."
And............. Walter will help Peter figure out what went wrong, and how to make things right. They will figure it out together, they always do.

I love having to look up definitions for title words to glean what the writers are meaning.

Oooooo, just what I mean! "A new agreement is substituted for the old one." It seems to indicate a different relationship that's different from the past. It could be the one I always wanted, but then there was already the accelerated relationship P/O had last spring in the last two episodes.
I don't know what to think, but it would be nice to have the Benchwarmer romance P/O devotees wanted from the beginning.

From your lips to Bad Robot's ears. This is their chance to do it up right. And I soooo hope they do. We got to see so many lovely scenes with Peter and Walter, and just a few there at the end with Peter and Olivia, it feels like there was lots more they could do with that P/O relationship, and I for one hope/believe they will. I think their writers are good enough to do it, have a romance that sticks (and show it!).
Side note: Val Steffoff, who worked for ages on the X-files, is not only property manager for Fringe now, he was listed with producer credit on 'Subject 9'. Very cool. And perhaps he can say how stringing out the romance for too long is not so good!

Quote :
“Peter has become a prisoner of the Fringe Division,” Joshua Jackson shares in a video featurette which we’ve gotten a first look at and shared below. “They don’t know who he is, so he’s currently being detained.”
Though this man of mystery claims to be Peter Bishop, “Walter can’t accept it,” says John Noble. Luckily for Fringe’s detainee, he boasts the know-how to help Olivia, Broyle et al with their current out-there nightmare: a growing invasion of shapeshifters. http://www.tvline.com/2011/10/fringe-season-4-episode-5-preview-video/

No Fringe this week, the broadcast is kicked back a week for the finish of the World Series.
(It was an amazingly close game, they were really well matched, and ordinarily it would have just been a fun game to watch, but I had the competing feelings of wanting it to go on and on, not caring who won, and wanting Texas to win, darnit, so I could see 'Novation' this week.)
But, the spoilers are fun; Loved Josh's " I'm baaaaaack!"
