Season two episode three of NBC’s La Brea ended with Eve and Izzy’s emotional reunion. Episode four, “The Fog,” opens with Eve (Natalie Zea) still not over the fact her daughter stepped through a sinkhole. She watches Izzy (Zyra Gorecki) as she sleeps, which in most cases would sound creepy but, in this case, is just sweet.
Gavin (Eoin Macken) joins the happy reunion and Izzy notes it’s the first time she’s seen her parents smile at each other in a while. It’s much more dangerous in 10,000 BC than Gavin expected so his current plan is to get Josh back from the ‘80s and find a way home. But that means they need to find Aldridge first. She’s key to returning home.

[Warning: The below contains Major spoilers for La Brea Episode 8 “Origins.”] La Brea drops some pretty big answers in its eighth episode, revealing the “Origins” of Gavin Harris (Eoin Macken) and explaining just why he’s having visions of 10,000 B.C., where his estranged wife Eve (Natalie Zea) and their son Josh (Jack Martin), along with everyone else who fell through the sinkhole, are. Going into the episode, we knew that Gavin had used his visions to confirm that everyone — including his friend Levi (Nicholas Gonzalez), with whom Eve had an affair — is still alive. During his search to find a way to save his family, we learned a bit more about Gavin’s past. He and a young girl, Ella, were found on the side of the road. Ella has some sort of connection to 10,000 B.C., with a sculpture of a hand matching the symbol seen back then. Rebecca Aldridge (Ming-Zhu Hii) told Gavin to...
