It just needs to be sated, even though it rarely ever can. The flashback at the start showing her experience at the start of the Empire’s attack decades ago is brutal, and it a reminder of just how powerful her sense of revenge is and that, truly, it doesn’t have to make sense. She has found a way to try and deal with things here as they get ready for the jump that’s about to happen, but Phara has spent far too long making sure her plan will work because it’s a plan from god. The group has been whittled down since getting on board the Invictus but Phara has enough of a threat looming over Salvor in regards to everyone on Terminus, including Salvor’s mother, that she continues to go along with the demands. In regards to Salvor, she’s mostly just continuing to try and find an out here while dealing with Phara and the few of those left with her. Now, book readers are going to blink a few times at some of this, but I’m still willing to give it space to play a little fast and loose with the intentions as spoken by Seldon and what the reality becomes. Helicon will have a lot of potential to explore and examine that, but the truth is said plainly here that coming to Star’s End, to Helicon, is all about establishing the more secretive Second Foundation in order to protect the first. The push toward Helicon is taking a potentially new shape because of her abilities that they talk about here where she’s not exactly prescient but may be tapping into something more. But we do get some progress here, which in my mind kind of undermines the future but therein lies the difference in novels and visual storytelling through TV. The time spent with Gaal isn’t as long as I’d prefer but she’s dealing with the elusive Hari Seldon who isn’t committing to certain things as much as she’d like in confirming what she’s saying. We continue to follow a couple of different tracks here with what’s going on across the known galaxy, but the majority of this one feels like its focus is on Brother Day.

Yet it manages to capture exactly what I was looking for in sinking our teeth into things just a bit more. That’s not exactly a bad thing considering what’s going on here, but it’s the kind of material that’s not going to be hugely engaging to a lot of viewers. Salvor prepares to make the ultimate sacrifice to return home.Ĭontent: (please note that content portions of a review may contain spoilers)Īfter an episode that felt like it had too much going on, Foundation slows things down here before the final two episodes and delves into things just a bit more but at a slower pace.
