Reunion is a decent enough episode that deals with Hobbes trying to find his mother in Harsh Realm. Interesting philosophical and spiritual questions about Harsh Realm come up in this episode as Mrs. Hobbes is on her death bed in both Harsh Realm and the real world. All throughout the episode both the real and virtual characters allude to things that happen in the other world happening in their dreams. At the moment of her death, Hobbes on one end and Sophie on the other are able to see each other through her eyes. This part of the episode while touching is somewhat slow at parts and kind of takes away from the idea of the concentration camp and the trackers. Plus the part of the warden is played by a great actor. Man that skullbug thing is gross. 8 out of 10.
