A fascinating chapter, what really stands out is how Annie’s vision collided with the practical realities (and politics) of her time. The contrast between the idealistic “time capsule for the future” and the lukewarm, even skeptical reception at the ceremony feels especially telling. It also raises an interesting question: how much of legacy is shaped not just by intention, but by public perception in the moment?
Or, in this case, perhaps petty partisanship and personal animosity, if Annie’s vague accusation can be believed. But yeah, that perception of value…how do we make sure that holds across the years. As values change and distance breaks stories. And as projects that feel desperately important to me become less important to those that come after? I had no answers.
Longevity is almost impossible to gauge. Nobody can predict how things shift in the short term and long term. Who decides whether something is kept or not? Fate sometimes decides if something stands the its of time.

Plucky and persistent does describe Annie Deihm. I didn't see the ending to this episode coming! Another cliffhanger.
Goodness. Now you have got me questioning Annie's motives and wondering just where this story is going ...?
