Trivia
Hopefully deliberate anachronisms: Chernobyl girl choir (with a pun "they glow" - of course the nuclear plant was non-existent until the 20th century) sings a song about the Red Army, which came in place after 1917.

Quotes
Orlo: The Chernobyl Girls Choir is our finest.
Ambassador Anders: They Glow

Best episode of the season for me

Aside from the laugh out loud moments, we get two heartfelt performances from Elle Fanning and Phoebe Fox. I can think of few shows that combine humor and gut wrenching moments so wonderfully. And for that reason, some people just don't get this show. Watch this episode. Listen to the song as the end credits roll. And tell me there is a better 50 minutes of television in this crazy 2020 of ours.
