So this is the way they're going with it. *sigh*

Warning: Spoilers
Welp, after the best episode in the whole series so far which was S2E9 I fully expected the next one to be worse, but this was quite a surprising amount of disappointment. Super-technology that no one ever had the chance to build undetected just pops up out of nowhere at just the right moment; an antagonist that's an absolute caricature with a weaker excuse for 'motivations' than even a comic book villain like Thanos; certain people refusing to die and staying in the story for yet more hundreds of years; mentalics arc gets resolved through what feels like a cheap last-minute retcon... my hopes for the next season are now much lower than last time, when even knowing they weren't following the books I thought they still had enough possibilities open to make their version good. But with S2E10 things are taking a distinctly stupider direction than I expected. (And can we please kill Gaal Dornick soon, or at least her useless personal-drama dialogues? Now that Salvor Hardin is finally gone only Gaal remains to massively drag down this show's character roster and dialogues.)
