Summary

May finally faces her past. Duvall and Shaw follow traces of Godzilla and Hiroshi.

Our Take

This is the episode where May’s backstory finally gets room to breathe, and it mostly earns the wait, though the flashbacks run a bit longer than they need to. The monster-hunting thread with Duvall and Shaw is thinner but keeps things moving. A solid, quieter hour that trades spectacle for character work, and it pays off better than expected.
