Summary
Past and present collide as Jake tries to stop JFK’s assassination… and must pay a terrible price if he succeeds.
Our Take
The buildup finally pays off here, and the tension in Dallas works better than anything since the early episodes. Franco carries the weight well, even if the time-travel logic gets hand-wavy when it matters most. A solid, mostly satisfying hour that earns its emotional beats, even if the ending leans harder on sadness than it needs to.
