come to pass

There are enough loose threads to suggest a second season was on Keller’s mind from the beginning — well, that’s TV, isn’t it? — but should that not come to pass, the arc this season completes is perfectly satisfying; not every open question needs to be answered, and my affection for the characters is such that I fear the troubles a second season will necessarily cook up for them.

Still, even within those limitations, Simon Pegg is delightful as Hunt’s longtime tech-whiz teammate Benji, as are new and returning ensemble members Tramell Tillman, Lucy Tulugarjuk and Rolf Saxon, the latter of whom plays a throwback character once threatened with manning a radar tower in Alaska — a punishment that did, in fact, come to pass.

A lot of what I expected has come to pass because my expectations were shaped by listening to the actual promises Trump was making to his base at rallies and in right-wing media during the campaign.

And both of those things have come to pass, and I remain deeply frustrated with all that transpired over the next three months...

There are practical and political reasons for why that might come to pass.
