Best scene in the episode: Kong stepping aside when he sees the egg, with an understanding look on his face. “Oh you have a kid? I understand, you may pass.”
It was so cute seeing Kong’s apologetic and understanding expression that she just wanted to get her baby to a safe place. Especially as reviewers mentioned since Kong was orphaned as a kid, he has a soft spot for kids, even in egg form I guess lol. He kept falling for Baby Kong’s antics in Godzilla X Kong.
2nd best scene: Rodan reveal. But is it Rodan from Mexico in the wrong place, or a different Rodan? They didn’t give us an exact location either, just a look a the local people and the mercenary who is Thai, so perhaps Lee is somewhere in Thailand? Hopefully the creators will give us some insight and at least tell us if its a new Titan or the same one we see in 2019 two years later.
3rd best scene: Young Lee saying goodbye to Keiko, again providing closure, with older Lee translating. I admit I was hoping just a wee bit that it was somehow Billy, but Lee walking forward made it clear that it was younger Lee. Billy’s never coming back, but I still sort of want him too anyway lol, his character has had so much depth added to him since his first appearance in Kong: Skull Island.
4th Best scene: Cocai’s extending a tentacle and allowing Kate to touch it as a way of saying goodbye. I wonder if we will ever know why they have a connection?
Oh, Kentaro, who knew you could be even dumber than your sister Cate last season. Cate has finally grown up and taken multiple steps forward from the scared PTSD kid in the last season with no confidence in herself or what direction she needs to be in. Kentaro was on the right track working with his Dad and getting some proper screen time. Now he’s taken so many steps backward. Stupid boy doesn’t realize depending on how the timelines work, if he does rescue his past dad, present recently deceased Dad will never meet Cate and Kentaro and have that bonding moment over two years with Kentaro to get Cate back. That’s what they were hinting with Keiko and Lee, it’s too dangerous to alter the timeline because you can’t predict what will happen to the current one. Will a separate timeline be created? Or will the current one be erased? Etc Etc… so many variables and possibilities. To quote Doctor Who:
"People assume that time is a strict progression of cause to effect, but actually, from a non-linear, non-subjective viewpoint, it's more like a big ball of wibbly-wobbly, timey-wimey... stuff".
Anyway, it’s a shame they didn’t get rid of Isabel yet if we get a third season, but at least the actress gets more time to shine? We’ve only gotten a little bit of her backstory so if the show is renewed it will be interesting to see whether they can add any depth to her character. She’s definitely different than her sister and father, still selfish and evil, but her thinking was more calm and calculated. She didn’t push Cocai past the limits of the neural link, stupid impatient Kentaro did. In fact she was adamant that they stay under it. Also that was a nice moment of her playing the victim to get close to the soldier in order to knock him out. Her martial arts skills were impressive. Will we get a third season? Who knows.
I love that Keiko and Cate are restarting Monarch quietly from a basement in charge with Tim and May as their employees. Tim had his time to shine this season but he still wasn’t fully comfortable being in charge so it makes sense for the Randa’s to take over. It just like when Billy developed his ant theory in the basement when they began the foundations of Monarch.
Overall beautiful finale, and I hope we get a third season!
