It's the first backward episode of the show, with Neo-Futurist ensemble member Cat Huck! We start with Cat dissecting one of her plays, "Hold," and I realize we've been talking about her coma moment, the death of her friend Ben.

Content warning: suicide, grief, lilac leather, going to war with roosters, one person's love vs. the spirit of Love.
