Since Olivia had disappeared, Peter had barely left their apartment. It wasn't like he was depressed or anything, he just hadn't found a reason to leave. For lack of a better word, he was bored. He'd been bored before Olivia showed up, without any Fringe cases to investigate or Walter to look after. When she had been here, things had at least been tolerable. Now they weren't, and in addition to that his food source had been severely depleted, so much so that he couldn't just go to the supermarket, toss a few cans of canned ravioli into the basket and leave. On top of that, he was running out of money again. Peter had been making his living job-hopping, because he couldn't find a place he could stand for more than a week. He didn't really feel like being employed again, but supposed he couldn't go without food.

Now he was trudging through the aisles of the supermarket, grabbing whatever looked edible and cheap. He wasn't particularly thrilled to be living a college student's life again. There was a reason he had dropped out. As he came to the cereal aisle, he noted that there were three boxes of Captain Crunch left. He picked all of them up and put them into his already pretty full shopping chart, mentally tabulating the cost of the items.
