Our Take
A quiet, sad, beautiful half hour that reframes two characters you thought you knew completely. The humor lands but it’s the small moments, the chicken soup, the hope that keeps flickering despite everything, that hit hardest. This is one of the show’s best episodes, and honestly one of the best things the series ever did.
