Welcome to the episode discussion! There is no spoiler protection in episode discussion threads, and spoiler tags are not necessary!
They sure know how to hit you in the feels. This episode, it was mostly the stuff with Billy. Watching him get unhinged was rough. Especially when Suzuki tries to bring him to his senses. Finding the camera, all the probes, and then the letter was heartbreaking.
Speaking of getting unhinged, Kentaro really seems to be thinking that time travel might be doable and that it might be a good idea. We've seen that the rifts and Axis Mundi do play games with time, but I'm not sure what his plan is.
Isabel seems to be just another capitalist exploiter of nature. I'm sure she thinks she's doing something good, but almost nobody ever realizes that they're a villain.
Knowing the rules of the Monsterverse, Isabel and Kentaro's lack of respect for the Titans and Axis Mundi may result in their deaths. Kentaro will probably live due to plot armor. Not unscathed.
I honestly thought Cate was going to bond with the egg and make it hatch. She's definitely done some reflection and growth the past couple of episodes.
My biggest disappointment in the episode was Kong not smashing the helicopter with the speakers. I get why it didn't happen but I would have just enjoyed it. I'm sure Kong will get a chance to break stuff soon.
That boneyard of remains from the events in Kong: Skull Island really hit hard.
I am wondering if Isabel may have shown Kentaro something/evidence from Hiro’s day/year in Axis Mundi. Or, generally more evidence that Hiroshi had worked with her team at some point.
If Kentaro believes that the plan to turn back time was originally something that Hiroshi was pursuing/supporting, then Kentaro would want to follow his father’s plan. And one could see that Hiroshi may have been wanting not only to keep verifying Billy’s map, but also to find a way to bring both his parents back to him.
They didn't show much of Isabel and Kentaro's interactions, so, yeah, she probably showed him something involving Hiroshi.
It'll be interesting to see where it goes.
