I am – Hercules!! Last week Peter Bishop met the better-coiffed Walternate, who may or may not be U.S. Secretary of Vengeance in the alternate universe Peter was stolen from. Over the next two episodes we’re not only going to be meeting Ginger Olivia Dunham and Bald Charlie Francis and T-shirt William Broyles, we’re going to meet Young William Bell. “We will get some information in [the season finale] episode about the William Bell on this side, the younger William Bell on this side,” Leonard Nimoy told SciFi Wire. Nimoy also tells the site the two-part season finale, which starts tonight, is finally giving him a lot more to do. His schedule: “A total of three or four days this week, and then I come back for another three or four days. ... Much more involvement than in the past, yeah.” Fox says of tonight’s “Over There: Part One”:

In part one of the two-part, two-night second season finale, Walter and Olivia travel to the parallel universe, and the anticipated face-off between Walter Bishop and William Bell occurs. Guest Cast: Ari Graynor as Rachel Dunham; David Call as Nick Lane; Pascale Hutton as Sally Clark; Omar Metwally as James Heath; Lily Pilblad as Ella Blake; Philip Winchester as Frank Stanton; Seth Gabel as Lincoln Lee; Orla Brady as Elizabeth Bishop; Leonard Nimoy as William Bell; Ryan James McDonald as Brandon.

Fox says of next Thursday’s second-season finale, “Over There: Part Two”:

In the second part of the two-part season finale, sacrifices will be made and both universes may never be the same again after Walter and Olivia visit the "other side." Guest Cast: Leonard Nimoy as William Bell.
