In occasion 5 of The Rehearsal season 1, Nathan gets into his part as a father. The occasion begins with father and son making a videotape, in which “Doctor Adam” treats Nathan by making him eat his “poop”. Commonly, the videotape doesn’t regale Angela.
It’s a commodity she weaponizes against Nathan constantly throughout the occasion. He ate fecal matter! You say it’s a fake scene, this still doesn’t make it normal. But Nathan, so complete at blurring the line between fabrication and reality, doesn’t see the big deal. perhaps that explains his constant struggle to be affected by this rehearsal. However, ” what’s the big deal?
If it’s not real. This wrangle is just one chink in Nathan’s and Angela’s decreasingly simulated relationship. And Nathan’s mama sees further issues when she and his father come to visit. As Nathan and his parents are Jewish, Angela’s Christian faith incontinently stands out to Nathan’s mama. She berates her son for not raising Adam to be Jewish. Again, Nathan wonders why someone would watch so important a commodity that’s not real. Why watch how he raises his fake child? But Nathan’s mama reveals that she sees his bowing to Angela as fitting into a dangerous pattern from his once connections.
So, Nathan decides to stick up for himself and push the issue – first by raising it in a trial with a fake Angela, of course. And just like in the trial, Angela isn’t open. She said she won’t raise the child atheist.
For utmost of the season, Angela has been explosively opinionated, but also agreeable and still restrained in her forbearance of Nathan’s presence. But cracks are starting to show in that veneer. We see it when fake Angela, whom Nathan hires as a nurse, asks the real Angela if she feels it’s been healthy for her in the trial.
Angela hesitates, straining for a response. “Mm,” My conjecture is that’s a “no.”
But Nathan doesn’t feel to notice what thin ice he’s on with Angela, because he also decides to educate Adam about Judaism behind her back, indeed hiring him an instructor named Miriam. A battle can’t be avoided, still, when Miriam discovers Nathan’s dishonesty and decides she wants to talk to Angela.
When Nathan asks fake Angela why she’s then, she’s argumentative, asking if she’s a joke to him. This results in Mariam telling Nathan to shut up. However, she says, he’d feel an emotion, If this were real. But Nathan can’t feel.
“You no way will,” she says.
“Oh.” Nathan pauses as if truly affected by this ( but substantially likely amusement). “ Okay. ”
In the real talk with Angela, Nathan asks her why she disregards the trial, and yet when he’s there, she tries to control his experience. Firstly, Angela says, she wanted the whole thing – age 0- 18. But she doesn’t see an end in sight. perhaps it’s a good time to bring this trial to a close.
So, she packs her effects. But Nathan feels compelled to continue the trial as a single father. He tells Adam that his mama left, but the two of them are still a family.
“ It was time to stand up for my values, ” he says. “ And the values of those who came before me. We don’t always get to choose what happens in life, but we do get to decide if we rehearse for it.
During this “ downtime, ” he and Adam celebrate Hanukkah with Miriam. It feels like an idyllic ending to the occasion, until we cut to a discussion between Nathan and Miriam.
Nathan is pressured to support Israel in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. She tells him he must use his platform to partake in how beautiful Israel is. Nathan is indistinctive in his responses – important the same as he was with Angela.
