Minority Mindset

It’s easy for me to say, since I’m not the one responsible for Mrs. Burns. Poor Mrs. Burns was found in a room that the hospital board thought was empty, which worried Donnie. Javadi realized they were talking about her patient and admitted she hadn’t added Mrs. Burns to the board, assuming the nurses had already done so. Dana explained that everyone needs to contribute and regularly check the board – if a patient isn’t listed, their tests won’t be processed, no one will check on them, and they’ll essentially be overlooked. To make matters worse, Javadi hadn’t yet informed a supervisor about Mrs. Burns. She came in feeling nauseous, and although Javadi ordered tests, Mrs. Burns has been waiting for an hour without any further attention.

Carolyn is currently trying to avoid attention as much as possible. Looking through a photo album of past Kennedy weddings – a gift from Caroline – she and John share a laugh over the family’s elaborate traditions. Their being high only makes it funnier when they observe that Edwin Schlossberg, in a Willi Smith suit, resembles David Byrne, but someone completely unfamiliar with him. Carolyn wants a simple, private wedding, free of unnecessary extravagance. John proposes Cumberland Island, Georgia – a location with no paved roads – as the ideal setting for her vision of a wedding without bouquet tosses, favors, showers, or brunches. She grows increasingly enthusiastic as she details her minimalist ceremony, approaching it almost like a project she’s planning. Sarah Pidgeon delivers a strong performance, giving Carolyn a vibrant personality and working to overcome some weaknesses in the character’s writing. Paul Anthony Kelly tries to match Pidgeon’s natural and effortless style, though he struggles to keep pace, even while dancing in his underwear.

The live-action Voltron series is currently planned to be released sometime in 2027. Amazon MGM Studios hasn’t announced an exact date yet, but the update signals that the show is progressing well after a long period of development, according to The Wrap.

This episode mainly follows the women as they travel to Italy and settle into the luxurious Villa Bibiani—which, by the way, you can rent if you’re wealthy enough (though let’s be real, most of us aren’t!). Before heading off, they recap their previous trip. We see Kyle meet with Amanda Frances, and I always tune out the details of what everyone orders until someone requests something ridiculously complicated, like a collagen latte with a specific blend of milk and no sugar. It made me think of a much simpler (and arguably less pretentious) drink order! Their conversation doesn’t cover much depth, but Amanda mentions getting around three facials a month. I initially thought that wasn’t excessive—I could easily get that many done in a single weekend—but I quickly realized we were talking about very different things.
