I think I need to digest this one a bit.

Manifold time and space, with the possibility of a multiverse on the side. Ambitious.

Monarch is definitely putting in the heavy lifting for practical applications of weird physics to make sense of the Monsterverse.

What are others thinking about the timey wimey reveals?

Watching younger Lee walk away from Keiko in Axis Mundi was heartbreaking.

It's an interesting way to give both Shaws a bit of a reality check though older Lee is still hellbent on unleashing Godzilla.

I had wondered how Shaw had failed to see traces of Keiko in Axis Mundi during the Hourglass mission. That’s explained in the most heart wrenching way. Not quite Jim Kirk’s choice in TOS ‘City on the Edge of Forever’ but definitely as personally difficult.

Now, I have to wonder how much of those conversations and events in Axis Mundi Shaw recalled when he returned. He doesn’t seem to remember them consciously in 2017.

I’m also trying to figure out how Isabelle knew that Hiroshi spent time in Axis Mundi and that let Kentaro know.

Younger Shaw was going through a lot while in Axis Mundi, so he may have convinced himself that he was hallucinating or something like that.

As far as Isabel, Apex was probably keeping an eye on Hiroshi, especially after he left Monarch. They may have known he disappeared and they had no reason to tell anyone.

She also did admit to doing some stalking of Kentaro, so she probably overheard it, or Hiroshi may have actually filed a report or such during the 2 years Cate and Company were gone.
