It’s a bonkers plan and-in true For All Mankindfashion-it absolutely should not work at all. This plan ultimately involves the bulk of the Mars crews, including Ed, Dani, Will, Rolan, and Kusnetzov volunteering en masse to stay behind on the Red Planet for an extra year and a half on limited rations to give Kelly her best chance at getting to safety.Įd steps up to drive the suddenly lighter Popeye despite the fact that it will have almost no fuel left to attempt a reentry or landing and Kelly herself will have to be suited up and strapped to the outside of the vehicle so that she can literally catapult herself off and use a personal propulsion device to (hopefully) navigate the remaining distance to Phoenix. In order to save the lives of both Kelly and her unborn baby, the Mars residents and Earth scientists must work together to come up with a way to get her back to Phoenix, which has better medical facilities. and Joel Kinnaman (Picture courtesy of Apple TV+)Īs per tradition, For All Mankind’s season finale seems as though it’s required to include an absolutely ridiculous and generally implausible rescue attempt of some kind, and “Stranger in a Strange Land” is no different.
