| − | '''Lewis Pirenne''' is a recurring character in the [[Apple TV+]] series ''[[Foundation (TV series)|Foundation]]''. He is the Director of the [[Foundation]] on [[Terminus]], and the leader of the colony. Lewis Pirenne is portrayed by [[Elliot Cowan]], first appearing in "[[Preparing to Live]]." |

| − | ==General Information== |
||
| − | Lewis Pirenne believed in [[Hari Seldon]]'s predictions of the fall of the [[Galactic Empire]] and volunteered to join the [[Foundation]] and travel via the [[slow ship]] ''[[Deliverance]]'' to the planet [[Terminus]]. He was part of the Foundation budgetary committee alongside [[Mari Hardin]], and dealt with matters concerning which information needed to be preserved for the coming generations. Lewis considered punctuality to be important, with [[Hari Seldon|Hari]] commenting that three minutes early was the same as being five minutes late to him.<ref name="PTL" /> |
||

| − | Following Hari's death, Lewis took command of the Foundation, following the project's line of succession.<ref name="UA">"[[Upon Awakening]]"</ref> He was in charge of the Foundation when it arrived at [[Terminus]] and began establishing the colony of [[Terminus City]], and was part of the initial scouting team that discovered the [[Vault]].<ref name="TMG">"[[The Mathematician's Ghost]]"</ref> Thirty-five years later, Lewis was still Director of the Foundation at it entered into a conflict with [[Anacreon]]s who had landed on Terminus.<ref name="BG">"[[Barbarians at the Gate]]"</ref> By that time, Lewis was married to [[Dara Pirenne|Dara]], and they had a young son.<ref name="DM" /> |
||
| − | |||
| − | When [[Anacreon]]s landed on Terminus, Lewis believed that Hari's plans had accounted for this possibility, and butted heads with [[Salvor Hardin]]'s handling of the situation, especially her capture of [[Phara Keaen]]. To him, Salvor and her intuitions were an outlier to the Plan, something that Hari could never possibly have predicted. Lewis also did not like her attempting to take control of the situation when he was the Director of the Foundation.<ref name="BG" /> Eventually, the Anacreons took control of [[Terminus City]] and conscripted several of the inhabitants to help them in repairing a jumpship. Lewis was selected since he was the leading surviving astronautics specialist on the ''Deliverance''. Along with [[Jacenta Rov]] and [[Akiva Lee]], Phara chose him to assist him in exchange for the lives of colonists.<ref name="DM" /> |
