I mentioned at the end of the previous thread that I recently finished watching Alias from start to finish, having gone through Fringe last winter. I noticed some parallels, and I wonder if I might have thought differently of Fringe if I'd watched Alias first.

Was Bell also Not-Bowie's boss in the original timeline?

If I recall correctly, Jones worked for Bell until Bell betrayed him in some undisclosed way and bogged off to the red universe; Jones was trying to get into the red universe to avenge himself. In the amber universe, Jones either a) stayed loyal to Bell or b) made it to the red universe and rejoined Bell instead (maybe Bell cured him of his terminal case of falling apart and oozing).

I think he was sort of morally ambiguous in the same way Walter was in the flashback episodes. Not evil, but not exactly a good man, either.
