Sarah, Ali and Maura get real about ‘safe spaces’ at Idyllwild and discuss the male privilege that has been lavished upon Maura for almost her entire life

Opening in 30s Berlin and concluding with a trip to a music festival, this transitional episode explores the halting progress towards liberation and equality

Sarah has plenty of misdeeds for which to beg forgiveness as the Pfeffermans gather for Yom Kippur. Meanwhile, Maura experiences a blatant act of misogyny

The Pfeffermans’ narcissism comes to the fore as Josh and Ali behave brutally, in an episode which also shows how antisemitism subtly taints the characters’ lives

A seam of subverted masculinity runs through this episode, in which Ali attends a hunter’s moon ritual and Josh’s attempts to keep up appearances collapse
