I was momentarily aww that they sent the baby away, but it can come back! Although Harry's blase descriptions of child-rearing and his own reaction to Grey hybrids, I'm a little worried what his people will make a human hybrid. When he kept licking the baby's head and reminding himself not to eat it, I thought of his cousin octopus and winced.
I'm glad this got renewed. It doesn't make sense when you poke at the plot with anything more than a toothpick, but the character moments - when he revealed himself because he wanted to protect Asta and got miffed at being ignored and the sheer frantic relief of the friends talking to and over each other, Asta shopping with her daughter, the entire arc with Asta's parents, with the resort and what Patience means to them, with the deputy getting taken seriously and backed up by the sheriff (an idiot in many ways but not dumb) and her husband - it feels like Northern Exposure meets Alf.

I thought they stuck the landing pretty well, resolving most of the plot lines. Harry going to McCallister pretty much sets the plate for season three (hopefully with more George Takei)

An awful lot happened here!
I'd say it will make for a confusing start to s3, but luckily I'm always confused.
But not like... mayor and his kidnapped fetus meeting in space kind of confused. That was so unexpected!

I guess we'll get more Enver Gjokaj as the primary antagonist next season!
