We learn that when the ferry shut down and Sally moved away, Gothitelle joined her and her father. When she grew up, Sally went to medical school, leaving Gothitelle with her father, and several years later learned that Gothitelle had disappeared. What? Her father never called her to say that her pet ran away? Jesus Christ, what a dick. Well, she happened to be assigned to a hospital near here and came to look at the bridge for old time’s sake, and now they're reunited. Sally tells Gothitelle that it needs to release everyone, however, because you “can’t turn back time” even though Gothitelle has pretty much done exactly that. Well, whatever, Gothitelle takes everyone out of the memory world, but decides not to go with Sally because... I don't know. It does say that Sally can come visit it if she likes, and then it leaves.
So… this episode is kind of nice, so I gave it a high score, but it also makes no real sense at any point. The heroes are completely superfluous here and do literally nothing except observe the entire episode, making Gothitelle the protagonist. This would be interesting, except that the writers aren’t talented enough to even realize what they did, so the heroes are still the protagonists and as a result, the episode is much worse than its potential implies.
