Only one episode left... 😭 God, what a fantastic episode this was. I loved the reveal of Tannhaus attempting to create the first time machine in order to bring back his family back from the dead.

ALSO, I believe I removed all the parts where Netflix was buffering, but if I missed any, please let me know and I’ll fix it ASAP. I experienced an internet outage a little over halfway through the episode. Hopefully I cut it out nice enough to make it not noticeable. Lmao...

Noah Schmidt

This episode along with S02E06, S02E08 and S03E05 is one of my favorites. A few explanations and insights before the finale: 1. Silja named her son Hanno after her mother Hannah. The name „Noah“ is also almost an ambigram of Han(n)o. Now we know that Bartosz gets killed by his son Noah. We actually have many cases of parents killing their children and vice versa: Helene kills her daughter Katharina, Jonas kills his mother Hannah, Noah kills his father Bartosz and Agnes kills her brother Noah. 2. The end of Hannah was very shocking and tragic to me. I think that to Jonas Hannah represents everything cruel in the world and him killing her marks his turning point from Jonas to Adam. We always see Jonas carrying some light with him (the futuristic light bulb, the lantern), but when he left that room with Silja, he left that lantern behind. And I think that was the point he lost all hope. Hannah’s ending is tragic, because of all the horrible things she has done, but when she returned to Jonas as a mother, she is killed. 3. A few things about Hannah’s affaire with Ulrich: There exits an interesting theory on why she waited all these years before making her moves with Ulrich. Of course, this could be because her husband is dead now and she is lonely. But there could be another reason: Think back to S02E06, when Hannah saw young Mikkel and had this deja-vu feeling. Mikkel reminded her of Michael, but Time Travel wouldn’t be the first theory that comes to your mind. What if Hannah thought that Michael had an affair with Katharina and Mikkel would be their son (Of course this would be weird, considering Katharina is Michael’s mother, but Hannah doesn’t know that). And now she thinks, if he cheated on me with Katharina, then I’ll cheat on him with Ulrich. 4. Adam asked Charlotte in S03E05 if she made her decision. I think that he meant by that, whether they would get baby Charlotte and give her to Tannhaus. Just imagine all the years Elisabeth didn’t know what happened to her daughter. And after her daughter got kidnapped, Elisabeth got Silja and probably raised her. 5. People sometimes get confused on why Jonas can’t kill himself or why Noah can’t kill Adam. They think that there is some invisible force stopping them from doing it or the gun from shooting, but of course that isn’t true. The Time Travel aspect made us switch perspectives and collapses our understanding on how things happen: It's not that Jonas can't kill himself because his older self already exists. It is more like, that his older self exists because Jonas didn’t kill himself. This is something very important to understand. 6. It is very interesting to track the many paths of objects in this show: The Time Machine, the pendant, the coins with the red string, the gun. I think that someone figured out that there are a total of 8 pendants floating around in different worlds and realities (because of the split at the moment of the apocalypse). Of course these pendants are all the same copy of the original one, that Egon gave Hannah in 1954. 7. Lastly: After this episode I truly trusted Claudia and I thought that she might be the MVP in this knot and of this show.
