Apr 2400:59:48Tap to summarizeTHE TESTAMENTS – “Ball” – At a debutante-style ball where Green girls are paraded before Commanders; the illusion of elegance begins to fray. Agnes discovers Garth’s status has changed. (Disney/Steve Wilkie)CHASE INFINITI Agnes’ season 1 journey has led up to this point, the ball (or the prom as some call it) is her chance to make an impression on eligible commanders. The prospect of it all scares and excites her. The chances that she’s ever touched a man for an extended time are low – and that’s all she’s expected to do at the ball! For her, it’s overwhelming and exhilarating – for the viewers, it’s just sad and pretty uncomfortable watching the older men with the young women. Meanwhile, our supporting characters endured a much less exciting time. One of Becka’s dance partners offered to spike her drink – which she could not refuse. Shu and Daisy rally behind the scenes to try and help Becka minimize the damage her drunken stumbling could cause her chances to find a good match (little as she wants a match). Daisy learns that she doesn’t have an easy path out of Gilead through her Mayday connections from Garth. Now that we mention Garth, Mr. Perfect gets a chance to dance with Agnes, leaving her breathless and riddled with desire. And upon learning that Garth’s promotion to Commander is only a couple weeks away, her fantasies may indeed become reality. Paul and Caroline really doubt it, but it’s nice for her to have had that moment of romantic dreaming.

Interact with Beth, Caroline, Producer Mike, and all of the DTS listeners! GUEST BIO: WILLIAM ATTICUS PARKER William Atticus Parker is a writer, director, producer, and actor living in Brooklyn, New York. At twenty-one years old, he has already written, directed, and produced two micro-low-budget feature films. Forty Winks, starring Justin Marcel McManus and Susan Sarandon, had a successful festival run and is now streaming on Prime Video, Tubi, Roku, and more. Atrabilious, starring Leon Addison Brown, Mark Boone Junior, Jeffrey Wright, and Whoopi Goldberg, had a successful festival run and will release on Prime Video July 18th, 2025. Forty Winks was filmed in Black & White with Atrabilious drenched in a neon color palette. Despite technical and financial limitations, both films did very well with critics and audiences alike. Forty Winks was filmed in less than a week with a budget of $5,000 when he was 17 and Atrabilious was filmed in a week and a half with a budget of $20,000 when he was 18 – both films were entirely self-funded. The Auction, his upcoming third feature starring Raúl Castillo & Mary-Louise Parker, is set to take his small-scale darkly comedic thrillers to a science-fiction horror spectacle. His acting career began as a seven-frame cameo in Forty Winks. He has now taken on roles in The Gray House (directed by Roland Joffe), Obstacle (short film with Megan Boone) and Their Town (written by Mark Duplass) as well as being set to appear in The Auction. His inspirations include Jordan Peele, Ari Aster, Donald Glover, Spike Lee, Wes Anderson and Joel & Ethan Coen.

(Disney/Russ Martin)HEATHER KOSIK, LUCY HALLIDAY This week’s episode of The Testaments, “Green Tea”, takes us further into Gilead’s arcane traditions with the plums hosting high tea as an expression of thanks to the Aunts. BUT there are also subtleties with lasting consequences for even the slightest misstep. Needless to say, the girls are on edge. Meanwhile, Daisy has no official role in the tea. She attends and observes the behind-the-scenes activities… and snoops around and speaks with Garth, the young Mayday agent masquerading as a Mackenzie family guardian. She’s getting nervous that Gilead’s forces are tightening the noose around her as she sees her Mayday comrades swinging from the gallows. Needless to day, she is also on edge. You know who’s not on edge? Aunt Lydia. She’s just here for the cake.

Tales From the Shogunate - A Shogun Companion Podcast Ep. 9
Apr 19, 2024Tap to summarizeShogun Season 1 Episode 9 “Crimson Sky”. Image by F/X. Copyright 2024. In this week’s exploration of F/X’s “Shogun,” we delve into “Crimson Sky,” the ninth episode of the season that unexpectedly shifts from the anticipated military theme to a more personal sacrifice. The title, previously hinted at as a strategic operation, takes on new depth as we witness Mariko’s profound sacrifice for Lord Toranaga. This poignant moment opens up a rich field of discussion about loyalty, duty, and the hidden meanings within the show. Paul, with his keen insights into the source material, highlights the deviations and parallels between the episode and James Clavell’s original work, adding a layer of depth to our understanding. Meanwhile, Gabby and Inez energize the conversation with their analysis of the episode’s symbolism, particularly focusing on the poetic expressions delivered by Mariko, which may hint at broader themes of destiny and honor. The trio’s dynamic discussion not only dissects the narrative twists of the episode but also speculates on the title’s implications, exploring whether “Crimson Sky” refers to the bloodshed of sacrifice or a metaphorical dawn of new beginnings. Join us for this compelling analysis, where we unravel the layers of storytelling woven into this dramatic episode. #Shogun #CrimsonSky #ShogunFX Others in this Series: Eps 1&2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 Hosts: Paul: X | Insta Inez: Insta Gabby: Insta
