Thank you FANdation, We are back with another recap of our favorite “The future is effed up” show Foundation Season 2 Episode 2. We’re picking up where Episode 1 ended with Gaal and Hari Seldon preparing to have a reckoning after Gaal imprisoned him in the Prime Radiant for 138 years.
This episode is titled “A Glimpse of Darkness” which seems very appropriate for all of the teases we get in this episode from the seemingly dark motives of Queen Sareth to the apocalyptic future we see with The Mule. Oh, and did I mention that Hari Seldon is completely pissed at being locked in the Prime Radiant while conscious for 138 years?
Synopsis: More than a century after the season one finale, tension mounts throughout the galaxy in “Foundation” season two. As the Cleons unravel, a vengeful queen plots to destroy Empire from within. Hari, Gaal, and Salvor discover a colony of Mentalics with psionic abilities that threaten to alter psychohistory itself. The Foundation has entered its religious phase, promulgating the Church of Seldon throughout the Outer Reach and inciting the Second Crisis: war with Empire. The monumental adaptation of “Foundation” chronicles the stories of four crucial individuals transcending space and time as they overcome deadly crises, shifting loyalties and complicated relationships that will ultimately determine the fate of humanity.
From storyteller David S. Goyer, the expansive global hit will debut on Apple TV+ on July 14, 2023 with one episode, followed by new episodes weekly, every Friday, through September 15. Based on Isaac Asimov’s award-winning stories, the series features an international cast led by Emmy-nominated actors Jared Harris and Lee Pace, alongside rising stars Lou Llobell and Leah Harvey.
