This episode will make you angry, and it should.
Watching a gross violation of someone's rights, even in fiction, should shock the conscious and this episode portrays it with amazing accuracy, depth, and heart.
It also uses a slight sprinkle of humor at appropriate times so as to not completely overwhelm the viewer.
It all comes together in this episode, even the music and direction is top notch. Easily one of the most important episodes of the series.
This almost feels like a counterpoint to 24, even borrowing split screen elements early in the episode to great effect.
The fact the other reviewers bring up politics in their reviews show you this addresses important issues.
