I loved it.

And I think what Joe said earlier, I was really struck by that book ending, too.

And I love that the end note of the episode from Dunk is about jerky.

That bite is the actual last note of the episode.

But, and I am his legacy.

On the morrow, we will show them what his hand had wrought.

I got like a chill.

And to be able to reconcile the truth that we are glimpsing in those, the very comedic adjacency of the flashback with this, like, I am trying to compel you to, to vouch for me, building toward this reconciling, as you said, of the truth.

And as we love to talk about this, this George central focus of what's real, right?

What's the ideal?

And how do those things meld with each other?

And for Dunk to be on his own journey of embracing it, but not as a rejection.

Like, Arlen is there as the foundation still, and then you build on top of that so Dunk can go become his own man.

And he wants, he's repeatedly in the novella, like, and he says it in this episode, 60 years and he was never a champion.

Like, I want more than that, and that's okay, but...

Saying that doesn't mean that I'm like, this guy actually was a joke and it's okay that no one remembers him.

He's like, the fact that no one remembers this guy who gave chunks of his body to help their cause is appalling.

Like, how can that be the way that people live their lives?

But not the most important chunk of his body.

That is intact.
