'Fringe' star pledges to resolve a mystery

John Noble, who plays the eccentric Dr. Walter Bishop on the sci-fi Fox show, says one of the show's biggest mysteries will soon be resolved.

Just before the show went on hiatus, the team of Dr. Bishop, his son Peter, (Joshua Jackson) and Agent Olivia Dunham, (Anna Torv), found a chilling manifesto that seems to hold clues to all the weirdness going on.

Then Dr. Bishop realized that the document was written on his typewriter. But, like everything in "Fringe," don't expect a simple answer.

Noble tells The Associated Press that fans should stay tuned for episodes beginning Tuesday.

Says Noble: "There will be an answer to it in the final episodes. It's a key element."

The first of six new episodes focuses on a young boy — pale with no eyebrows or hair — who is found in a chamber that's been closed for 70 years.
