However, in the very first episode of Season 1, a voiceover from Gaal hints at her future knowledge of an enemy of the Foundation known as “the Mule.” In the Isaac Asimov books upon which Foundation is based, the Mule is a telepathic mutant who evades the mathematics of the future-reaching “Seldon Plan,” and becomes the person who causes the downfall of the First Foundation. At the end of Season 1, his apprentice Gaal Dornick (Lou Llobell) finds herself thrust into the future, and face-to-face with her genetic daughter, Salvor Hardin (Leah Havey), the de facto leader of the First Foundation on the planet Terminus. Several twists and turns in Season 1 revealed there was more to Seldon’s plan than what he said outright. But, if given enough resources, he could mathematically help future generations reduce the amount of time the new dark ages lasted by several thousand years. Quick recap: In Season 1, Hari Seldon (Jared Harris) predicted a new dark age was coming to the Imperium. Although the Season 2 trailer for Foundation doesn’t reveal much, we do get a sense that things across the galaxy are unraveling in a way that is much bigger than Season 1.
