I just love the reveal scene between Olivia and Peter the hospital in Marionette. It's seriously good bit of writing and acting. The way that Liv braces herself when Peter starts to talk; the way the shot stays on her as he explains; the way you see her dying by degrees as the truth comes out. And then it's back to classic Bulletproof Olivia mode as she boxes up her damage and tries to persuade Peter that she's not hurt: "It's fine. We're good. Let's go."
And the kicker? Peter, poor deluded fool that he is, thinks she's taken the news well. Walter, on the other hand, is surprisingly insightful: "Really? Do you think possibly they replaced her with a robot?"
