But I do not understand why they drowned Hari Seldon, just after he got a body for some reason. There was some mystery that has been killed off. And now they killed Salvor Hardin. Weird.

Yeah this got me too. At the end of last episode, I wasn’t really all that moved by Hari being killed because I thought “Oh they’ll just find some way to explain that he didn’t actually die” whether that be his consciousness being back in The Prime Radiant, him inducing a state of suspended animation to appear like he was successfully killed, or by some other means. I suppose its not completely too late, if he was transferred back to the prime radiant we wouldn’t know it just yet (since I believe it was on their ship that the sighters took off with?) - and they did make a point of telling us Hari has two bodies, the second one being kept in the dark about some of the things regarding Foundation. Maybe it’ll tie back into that somehow.

What I can’t explain however is what they’re going to do with Salvor, she may actually just be gone now.

On a bit of a rant-y tangent, I wasn’t really a fan of how it all played out. I know with TV, they expect you to engage in “Suspension of disbelief” but I find it really hard to believe that Salvor would think its reasonable to go off on her own when she thinks the situation is suspicious and has found The Sighters to be keeping secrets since day one. I’m also shocked that Gaal, whose terrified of her vision of Salvor dying, would also be okay with her just chasing ghosts in the dark by herself. Normally I wouldn’t be all that surprised since Gaal is well… Gaal, but considering the past few situations they’ve been in?

In a lot of shows I can remind myself that the audience is generally aware of a lot of pieces that the actual characters of the show aren’t privy to, but basically one half of the show is literally dedicated to that half of the characters predicting the future using math and other heuristics. Maybe it’s just me, but the whole thing just comes across in bad taste for me.
