I love this episode, I just think it really shows how great/crazy/powerful the show can be. With the Joel storyline you really see the town get together to help him out, and can really see that they really not only care for him, but also realize that they are part of the reason that he can\'t grieve in his on way, because he is stuck in Cicely.
The Stevens Feud is what does it for me, i just think it is hilarious how pumped Chris gets to fight and Bernard is scared out of his mind and just doesn't know what to do with himself...
Do yourself a favor, and watch this episode, immediately.moreless
Episode Summary
EDIT
Joel seeks out other Jews to help him mourn his uncle and Maurice calls out the troops to go out and round some up. Chris gets Bernard to help settle a 150-year-old feud between the Millers and the Stevens; something Bernard has some trepidation about participating in especially since it involves fighting, something he's never done. Marilyn drafts Holling to be her partner in a Cajun dance contest.moreless
