Episode Summary & Review

Summary

The Foundation makes the long journey to Terminus as Gaal and Raych grow closer. The Empire faces a difficult decision.

Our Take

The Terminus journey gives the show room to breathe, and the Gaal and Raych scenes have real warmth to them. The Imperial subplot moves slower, leaning on gorgeous visuals and Lee Pace’s presence to cover for thin material. It’s a decent transitional hour that sets up more than it delivers, worth a watch if you’re already invested.
