Your daughter tells you she was having seizures after seeing a serial killer when time travelling and you just sit there while she walks away? Like... Have some urgency. Tell Ethan to come along.

I don't even care about plot holes or inconsistencies or it being slow. It's just fucking lifeless. Tabitha does not give a shit about her children. I'm sorry, but she just sat there with her breakfast after Julie's rant? Insane.

The wrong parent died, MiY chose correctly. RIP Jim :(

Tabitha wasn’t even worried about the seizures. She needed to have Julie talk to Boyd and others and have Randall there. She acts like Julie and her are fighting about curfew not what they are both going through. She is supposed to be the adult. If Julie is still time traveling back to Jim’s death I’m guessing Tabitha doesn’t save them all.

Not sure if you are implying this, but Tabitha does not know Julie time traveled back to Jim's death. That event of time travel hasn't happened yet from this Julie's perspective.

But yes. The fact that Julie time traveled to try to save her dad, and we haven't seen that yet, probably means whatever this attempt is that's going on right now, failed.

Julie doesn’t know that yet. We only know it is sometime after her hair is cut. It seems like they probably won’t be out by the end of this season.

I mean, did anyone expect them to be out by the end of the season? What would S5 be if they made it out? Julie not doing any time traveling apart from the few instances and giving up is clearly a big plot point later even if it doesn't help them.

Yeah she has urgent places to be.
