It’s troubling, especially for Empire, the genetic dynasty of clones named Cleon that’s been in power for centuries, but it’s not as bad as all-out extinction. But as season three begins, certain among Foundation‘s characters learn the math has changed, and total doomsday is all but certain. Some react to this news—signaled by worrisome chang
