Great episode.
+ I loved the time loop. I love the idea of Time as a Presence, as a Will, as something that will act on it's own. I'm into it. Curious to see where this goes.
+ Hannah being alive was a fantastic twist. I loved it. It also made it the most emotional episode thus far. Katarina and Hannah's reunion brought me to tears.
+ I'm curious if Hannah was always saved or if it was just in this iteration of the timeline.
+ I am so curious about Hannah's life. How did she grow up? Did Jennifer raise her herself, was she community raised or by one of the Daughters? Has she always known the truth about her birth mother? Imagine knowing that you're mother invented time travel in order to undue your death (and as a by-product also save the world.)
+ Cole finally confessing his love was great. In the debate between having love while you can vs being afraid of the pain of losing it, I err on the side I always do in these situations - grab that love and cherish it while you can. When you are already in love there is no point in not pursuing it because it will still be painful to lose them, you'll only be depriving yourself of enjoying that love while you could.
+ Ramse once again fell back into wanting murder when overwhelmed with grief and at this point it's now a character trait. It's an interesting one considering he's always tried to be the voice of mercy.
+ I really enjoyed Jennifer helping Cole work through what he needed to do to end the time loop, and at the same time kicking him out of his funk. She was great this episode. Also her grinning as they're led to be shot was very her.
+ Aw Jennifer hugging Cassie immediately was nice. Surprised and a little disappointed that she didn't try and hug Cole too.
+ I find it interesting that the Daughters have known Cole since 2020. He's not just a name but someone they've met. I wonder how much they know? They've been very much in the background of things but I really want to know more.
