Plus, Patrick preps for a serious talk with his brother
If I find myself surprised at how skillfully Fielder’s series would turn out to be a meditation on theories of performance ,
it’s only because its premise so obviously courted a kind of hands-on self-help therapy that I worried would be the key concern in every episode.
And, of course, at every beat, Fielder keeps pushing us into murkier ethical territory the more he manipulates his “guests.Orchestrating a fake real-life bonding experience with an actor hired to play a grandpa who’s then pronounced dead—all for the sake of triggering the feelings Patrick would need to get through to his brother—is a fascinating moment of emotional manipulation. Or, meta-manipulation since this was a finely tuned rehearsal where everyone knew what was up except Patrick himself.
