Description

The one thing we don’t discuss in this, our penultimate, recap of HBO’s Task is that the title of episode 6 is a play on a line from a poem by the 13th century Persian poet Jelaluddin Rumi (sorry if you already knew that!). We just thought its meaning was self evident because there IS a river in this show.

Here’s what we do cover:

* Goodnight, snickerdoodle

* There are still more moles! Stop it! Enough!

* Tom’s search for a replacement son

* Gertie's evocation as a Lego and what constitutes an impression of a chicken

*Robbie's final moments. Golden Globe for Tom P or are we the only people watching this show?
