It’s all about Chidi this week, as TheGoodPlace flashes back over his 800-plus lifetimes — and he come to a big realization. Alan Sepinwall’s recap
Where the origins of Eleanor, Jason, and Tahani have been pretty exhaustively explored by now, we know surprisingly little about Chidi. He’s the only character who didn’t go home during the Soul Squad period, for instance, and the only one where we haven’t seen a parent before now.
But the note that Chidi scribbles to give to Janet — an echo of the “Find Chidi” note Eleanor gave her right before the first reboot — has two sentiments on it. The first is, “There is no ‘answer,'” which is the painful lesson he spent 800-plus lifetimes learning. The second is, “But Eleanor is the answer,” which is the complicated but much more rewarding lesson he learned over that same long span of time.
But as we bounce around through Chidi’s POV on all the reboots, we see that Eleanor kept being drawn to Chidi no matter what else was happening and who they were told were their soul mates.
