I think that is not the case as I think that Peter is already in "his" universe, he was just merely removed from it and therefore so were his actions and interactions and memories of him.

Yeah, that was my understanding as well. I was doubting he was in a "3rd" universe. Everything in this universe is the same, except no one remembered peter.

It makes sense that peter thinks he is in a 3rd universe, because he didn't know the observers had planned to "delete him" and as far as he knows the machine just transported him to another one.

That's what I thought as well. I wasn't sure how he came to the conclusion that he was in a third, entirely different universe.

From his POV, it makes sense. He already knows of at least 2 universes, and when he comes back, no one knows him in either universe. Therefore, he isn't in A or B, he must be in C.

Wasn't it a long time ago (when the 2nd universe was first introduced) that one of the writers said there were only two universes?

What they said was something along the lines of 'we're only going to deal with two universes'. Doesn't mean that the characters on the show can't think of there being more than 2.

There are differences between his old timeline and the new one. For instance the very things that were different due to Peter being gone, could be the differences between universes.

I'm curious to know why things are so different since it is his universe, like Olivia's step dad being dead, the other side's Broyle's being alive, Olivia having completely different memories, to name a few.

My theory is the two universes merged together.

because Peter died as a Boy on both sides and so Peter was erased from then on and because of that any interactions he had with Olive or anyone else as a child or up till now was different he did not have influences on them in any way shape or form so things happen slightly different or in some cases extreamly different

to the above poster no the 2 universes did not merge there is still a bridge We have been in the Right universe the entire time since episode 1 of this season

I'm well aware of time more or less starting over without Peter existing, but things prior to Peter and Olivia meeting as adults, like Olivia's step dad being dead when originally he wasn't, should have, in theory, remained the same. So now Olivia is having memories of a different life she lived, which, for all intents and purposes, no longer exists. If she thinks about her step father, she'll think he's still alive, sending her cards on her birthday when he's really dead. I'm hoping they somehow work out discrepancies like this. It's not so much a continuity error given the nature of the show, I just hope these kind of logical questions aren't discarded. From what I can tell, though, they haven't simply shrugged it off and instead have put an effort into addressing them.

Don't forget, Peter and Olivia first met as children :)

    • This seems backwards. You should have to explicitly authorize files for outside use. It shouldn't be the default.
    • Wow you are right, I never even noticed this until you said it! (870E Aorus Master) Before testing this card I had a TP-Link tx401 10GbE PCIe card in that slot (now using XikeStor 310 Thunderbolt to Ethernet adapter).
    • Lack of 5.1 makes this a no sale. What I really wish creative would make would be a USB version that supports 5.1 analog audio for speakers, can switch to headphone mode, and matches the specs of their top tier cards. The current X870E AMD motherboards dont have a great option for adding a PCIE x1 card without cutting down pcie lanes to the graphics card.
    • The Microsoft Office feature that time forgot by Usama Jawad I have been actively using Microsoft Word for the past couple of decades in academic, professional, and personal capacities. Although I used it through the perpetual version of Office apps at the start, I have been an active subscriber of Microsoft 365 Family subscription for over five years now. This means that my Word installation is regularly updated with new features, some of which I don't really like, but that's beside the point. As new features get continuously added, old ones that used to be a staple of Word have started to take a backseat. While I was reminiscing over my Windows experiences from my childhood today, I suddenly remember one such capability that I heavily used in my younger years but have not really touched in over a decade, and haven't seen in documents created by others either. That feature is WordArt. Just to clarify, WordArt is not a Microsoft product specific to Word, and is included in other Office apps like PowerPoint and Excel too. However, Microsoft Word is the app that I used Word Art in heavily, while making assignments or other deliverables for school. If you're unaware, WordArt offers a collection of styling techniques for text, introducing 3D effects like shadows and reflections in the text. It used to be one of the coolest things ever when I was at school and me and my classmates would often compete to ensure that our assignment's title in WordArt was truly the best and stood out above the rest. See some examples of WordArt, still present in the latest versions of Word below: Although WordArt is undeniably cool, it has taken a bit of a backseat, and has been relegated from the Home tab to the Insert toolbar, along with a bunch of other utilities, making it very easy to miss. This isn't exactly surprising because WordArt doesn't really have a place in academic and professional documents anymore, and while I have seen some creatives using it while developing promo material, even that sector has gravitated more towards dedicated graphic designing tools in the past years. For the vast majority of us, WordArt doesn't really exist, and that's alright. At least, it's still an option that can allow us to reminisce our childhood or even make some quick text stylization, if we really need it. Perhaps its usage has waned over time or the novelty has worn off, but I haven't even seen children use it in their academic assignments anymore. In fact, many don't even know that it exists. Maybe that's the fate of every beloved feature. What once felt cutting edge eventually becomes a relic, quietly tucked away as tastes, trends, and technology move on. WordArt may no longer dominate school assignments or decorate the covers of classroom projects, but for those of us who grew up with it, it remains a colorful reminder of a time when making text glow, bend, and cast giant shadows felt like the height of creativity. Hidden behind a few clicks in modern Word, it still survives not as a productivity tool, but as a small piece of computing nostalgia that refuses to disappear.
