JL;DR SUMMARY The episode explores the aftermath of a violent incident involving mobs targeting Jewish tourists in Amsterdam, paralleling the 86th anniversary of Kristallnacht. A way out west there was a fella, fella I want to tell you about, fella by the name of Jeff Lebowski.

  • And a lot about where he lived, likewise. But then again, maybe that's why I found the place s'durned innarestin'.
