Episode Summary & Review

Summary

After Pierce Hawthorne’s unexpected passing, a team of investigators headed by the no-nonsense Mr. Stone, arrives at Greendale to submit the study group to lie detector tests before they can be considered for distributions under the will. Tensions mount as Mr. Stone digs in with the questions and the group members learn a little more about one another than they wished.

Our Take

Confident and engaging. The plot moves, the stakes feel real, and the hour flies by.
