    Agree, great episode. While I’m sure the show would do interesting things with it, I kind of hope the direction with the mentallics isn’t for this Tellem to try to move conscious into Gale, but Gale be dominant mind and just making Gale super powerful. Just wouldn’t feel earned.

        I bet Salvor will burst in with those brain wave suppressors turned on to eleven. Then everyone will get a massive headache and drop to the floor.

        And by Salvor Hardin you mean VAR Hari Seldon

        I realised the anagram a few days ago. I tried to find information about this on the internet but couldn’t find any. I can’t remember if it’s mentioned in the books but it can’t be a coincidence.

        Also, yes. Salvor definitely will save the day.

          did i miss something ? Salvor Hardin does not have an e in it so how can it be an anagram to hari sEldon ?

            True, but my guess is that Asimov removed a silent e in Salvor(e) Hardin(e) to make the anagram less obvious.

      This is literally the first time Gaal has been remotely useful, interesting watchable, or just… remotely functional, the rest of the time she’s either crying or just being contrary just because.

        I was very upset with her in the previous episode when she was demanding trust from Salvor with the obvious problem being she is not trusting Salvor or her hunch and about the boats history being erased.
