Interesting episode!
26 January 2024
Okay episode! A child born out of wedlock is literally a mamzer or "basturd" in English although this fact is never mentioned or even hinted at in the child's presence! Shandeh in Yiddish suggests a major source of shame or disgrace! Too predictable and simplistic an episode although D' Onofrio was superb as always and carried his character's role and complexities extremely well! Eames carried her role well as always but the episode could have used more positive portrayals of the numerous other good aspects of Orthodox, G-d fearing Judaism! Was an interesting portrayal nonetheless with interesting elements throughout!
