    When Big started crying I thought it was going to turn into a joke but then everyone started crying, and then I started crying! An awesome episode for sure.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    And thus begins what Bucky dubs “Operation: Nephew Rescue,” where the two male elders and Big(*) conscript Cheese into joining them on a camping and fishing trip in the woods.

    (*) Though Zahn McClarnon could play a lot of ages within a 20-25 year span, he’s a fair amount younger than Wes Studi and Gary Farmer, and Season One’s “Come and Get Your Love” already established him as a pre-teen in the mid-Eighties.

    (*) This sets up another of this season’s hilarious mid-credits scenes (see also Big and Bev’s continued gross flirting in “Friday”), as we see two actual Bigfoots (Bigfeet?)

    Eventually, the episode’s subtext becomes text, as Cheese — borrowing a ritual he learned during his time at the group home last season — gets all three of his companions to open up.

    He needed us, and we turned our back on him.” Soon, all the adult men are weeping, in a way that is simultaneously ridiculous and poignant, and they inspire Cheese to call his friends to watch the sunset with them.

    Perhaps, now that the kids have achieved catharsis over the loss of Daniel, the plan for this last year is to draw a closer link between previous generations and the one we’re watching?
