TL;DR – A calamity of events comes crashing together like a wave hitting a cliff wall.

Disclosure – I paid for the Apple TV+ service that used to view this episode.

Foundation Introduction –

When I first started watching the third season of Foundation with A Song for the End of Everything, I was concerned they would be trying to force all of The Mule’s story into this one season. I still have those concerns, but as the season leans into a more schlocky vibe, I have been more intrigued to see where they go.  

So, to set the scene, calamity is erupting across the galaxy, much stemming from the work of The Mule (Pilou Asbæk). He has put the plans of the Foundation, Second Foundation, Traders, and Empire into chaos, and could have put the human race on the path to its extinction. But the one person that The Mule is obsessed with is now in sight, which is not good news for that person, Gaal Dornick (Lou Llobell). Even worse news for Gaal is that she has picked up an unwanted visitor on her ship, Demerzel (Laura Birn), the last robot left in the galaxy, and she is not happy. Now, from here, we will be looking at the season as a whole, so there will be some [SPOILERS] ahead.
