The Liar and the Whore

While in the Bay Breeze hospital sharing the room with another patient, Edith Kirky dies. Vanessa Diaz is one of the nurses in charge of Edith, and sends her body to Fisher's Service. Her husband Federico finds a hot-dog in the throat of Edith, calls the police and Vanessa loses her job, accused of negligence. Nate and David are sued by the bargain hunter Catherine Collins (of "In Place of Anger") in US$ 500,000.00 because Nate showed her husband's corpse to her. They find that Mitzi Dalton Huntley is providing the lawyers and David tries to deal the lawsuit with the widow and has a great surprise. Ruth believes Claire is depressed, visits Gary Deitman and he suggests that Ruth herself is the depressed one. Keith's parents decide to take Taylor with them, and David convinces Keith to face his father. The codependent Ruth secretly pays the debt of US$ 87,000.00 of Nikolai with Yuri. Nate discloses the truth about the pregnancy of Lisa to Brenda, and his disturbed, dysfunctional and unstable girlfriend uses many drugs, recalls her twisted childhood and has sex simultaneously with two strangers. Rabbi Ari visits Nate and he tells her about his disease and the pregnancy of Lisa.

"The Liar and the Whore" is another great episode of "Six Feet Under", where the inner flaws in the personalities of many characters are approached: the codependency of Ruth; the insecurity of Claire with her artistic vein; the relationship of Keith and his brutal father; the doubts of Nate about his feelings; the actions of the deranged and twisted Brenda, probably the most interesting character of this series, and I am really curious to see where her sexual behavior will lead her. David seems to be the strongest and most positive character of "Six Feet Under". My vote is nine.
