Description
The Satellite Sisters re-cap of Madam Secretary Season 2, Episode 13
Madam Secretary
Invasive species! ( I think that's what happened to Lord Granthem on Downtown Abbey!)
Putting the FUN back in Funeral
Very touching, self-contained episode where we get some good background information on henry and we get a superb performance by Kate Burton who NEVER ONCE in her career has played a light-hearted. carefree woman. She is the Queen of Embittered and her role as Henry's oldest sister Maureen is no different.
MSec gets the news that Henry's dad has died and the whole family heads to Pittsburgh -- remember Tom Skerritt in Season 1, union hero and agitator
And things go South right away. there is tension:
The teenagers in the family have no desire to be around the adults.
The siblings all have issues with each other
The brother in law doesn't get to speak and noone cares
Everyone resents Queen Elizabeth!
The truth comes out and there are consequences. I loved that the teens dug around and discovered the truth-- including PASSWORD.
we learn about the courtship, elizabeths sad and lonely childhood with Eric Stolz, the reason for the tension between academic son and union organizer father. and we learn that elizabeth can put a casket on a credit card and everyone hates her for it...
wrap up grieving in a few scenes.
back at the DOS--
Chief of staff send Nadine on wild goose chase that I'm sure will come back to bite them. All I could think about was that I hope Aaron Tveit who played Danny Zuco in grease would join the MSEC cast and get a bug duet with Patina miller at the karaoke bar!
Bonus!
Eric Stolz on facetime!
Madam Secretary wears casual clothes!
