They got so much right this week
Milchick’s scene with Natalie this week was perfect in so many ways. The moment I can’t stop thinking about came right before Natalie left his office. If you have ever been one of two Black people in a white setting you can immediately see way he is reaching out to Natalie. He is asking for that thing we give each other when white people act up, and instead of reciprocating or responding she just… broke. She couldn’t give him anything. It was horrifying for both of them. Natalie giving up even that part of her identity and Milchick realizing how little humanity they saw in him. It was so well done on every level, probably one of the most haunting moments in the show for me.
