@@naturistfredyes. You nailed it. Alcoholism can be a disease in itself. However, in this case it strongly appeared that Donna had a severe mental illness and the drinking/smoking were her attempts to self-medicate. They were symptoms of the problem. I say this because Donna was hauntingly, heartbreakingly like my own Mom. My two sisters and I experienced this growing up. Our Mom drank for a short time, but extreme chain smoking was her coping mechanism of choice. We always knew shit was about to go down when her drags on her cigarette got longer and more dramatic and when her sighs got deeper and shaky. This episode… damn.

As intense as this episode was, one cannot say there is no love between them. They just are too internally incapacitated to show it in healthy ways. I've never seen family dysfunction and generational trauma displayed with so much dignity, ironically

Donna likely experienced trauma as a child. Perhaps in her household. It’s partly why she seems to seek out love in a childish “attention-seeking” manner. Her inner child is trying to get its needs met but doesn’t know how to do so in a functional way. This is how intergenerational trauma works and Donna was likely a victim before she became a victimizer.

This episode was brilliant and triggering for me, especially coming from a family with folks dealing with undiagnosed mental health issues. Mid-way through the episode I stopped it and told my partner I needed a breather because I really felt like I was in the story because of how similar it felt art times ny family’s holidays. In the dynamic I’m definitely similar to Carmy and his aunt. His aunt especially, where I get the sense she moved away and has a stable relationship/life but feels a sort of survivors guilt about it because it’s honestly only possible with boundaries and distance. 😢

My mother also named Donna, suffered from bipolar disorder and the kitchen scene could have been any holiday in my youth. Before I was born in the 50's, she had suffered a nervous breakdown, which was kind of a generic term for "we don't understand what is wrong with her". She was treated with "tranquilizers" that left her numb and depressed so she would often skip them leading to manic episodes not quite as severe as driving a car into the house, but she did chase me into the yard with a knife when I was 12. She never really got the help she needed. So yeah, that whole episode hit me hard.

I think she's bipolar, but possibly has a personality disorder as well. On account of her emotional manipulation of those around her and especially her children, her attention seeking behavior, her constant need to pursue conflict for no reason. Valaritas speculated about whether her remarks about no one appreciating her and no one helping her are born of a deep resentment or just a guilt-tripping pity party for the sake of attention and sympathy, I think both things are true. I think she means what she's saying at least in the moment, but is also using guilt to manipulate people even if it isn't fully conscious. People offer her help about a million times and she loudly rejects it, but still she claims that no one helps her. She has to know on some level that what she is saying is unfair or false.

3:10 I didnt realize this. This gives a lot more power to why in the season finale when Carm and Richie are arguing, why Richie is telling Carm that he loves him, and Carm doesnt take it. Also, a significant reason why Carm doesnt say I love you back. Its been used as a power move against him.

This episode was so brutal I had to pause several time to take a break.

Sorry for the copyright! One of the most stressful tv episodes I have ever seen. Great analysis, especially Berzatto women's choice of husband, I could never see that relevance. Keep up with your good work!

This episode hit me in the feelings hard, I ended a relationship last year that had become toxic and emotionally abusive. My therapist specializes in BPD and had said while she can't diagnose someone who isn't her patient, the signs of BPD were there from my ex. This episode triggered so many deep-seated feelings and nailed it. The anxiety as you realize they're drinking more and more, the pendulum swing of emotion, then the terror as it erupts into an outburst. Then maybe you find some peace and they calm down, it seems okay, only to be followed by something even bigger and scarier. When Donna was grabbing Sugar's face and screaming at her... I burst into tears. I haven't seen anything on film capture that kind of pain before so relatably for me.

This episode should come wIth a preemptive warning for all those potential viewers who may be unduly triggered by seeing their familial dysfunction, writ large, displayed by a troupe of entertainment professionals, engaged in a joint endeavor cloaked as pop culture entertainment, that packs the heft of a cinematic neutron bomb, while delivering truths so powerful they leave craters in the hearts of anyone who innocently stumbled into it.

One thing I am a bit confusing is that, the Berzattos are with chaos, but it seems many people like to join their family gathering / or being part of their family. Ex: Richie, Fak (even asks if they can stay over on Christmas Eve). Stevie seems likes this family a lot. Pete said "thank you for let me being part of this family" in S01.

I wonder if there might be a mob or organized crime connection. Def is hinted at that Unc Jimmy has some pull, and with the father not being around I wonder if Lane might be someone as a older leader in the family that their father might have been involved in. Even in season 1 Richie def knows a number of street members. It seems like a very closed off protective atmosphere that I associate with that type of life style. Everyone also seems to be somewhat afraid of or respectful to Lee except for Michael when he his high and even then it seems like there is a lot of resentment and not just upset about Lee being a jerk. Total speculation

This episode was so well done. You could feel the tension in the room. As a child of a narcissistic, drug addict, alcoholic father (Geez that’s a mouthful) I resonate with the Berzatto children all too well.

This episode is so insanely relatable that watching certain scenes was like getting punched in the gut. I already fight the anxiety the show gives, but this episode was chef's kiss. Their mother is so much my mother-in-law. Sadly, she watches this show and this was her favorite episode because of the mother. In my head I'm thinking, "you know thats you right? Its not cute."😅 I can never tell if that woman is evil or just oblivious.

Also don’t forget, this episode is renowned for being shot with one take. That constant going take is what increases the tension and chaos too

at first michaels comment about carmen only ever helping mom felt like throwing shade, but now that im seeing it again i feel like he actually said that to comfort and remind their mom that carmen is trying to help. i think he was genuinely trying to calm donna down. it also explains why he was taken aback when carmen asked if it was a shot. it wasnt

This was a hard watch. My own mother is a borderline personality alcoholic. I have anxiety because of childhood (eg my mother killed our dog with a punch; my mother chased me with a knife and I hid under the bed for a day). Christmas was hell and i don’t do it. I have GAD & PTSD. I tried to kill myself twice. I understand the sister desperately trying to keep her mother ok, even though the mother is a human nuke. I was blown away by this episode. I’ve never seen anything like it. Not even the Sopranos. It was horrible. I got triggered & 5 minutes later I was laughing at John Mulaney. It was exhausting! I don’t talk to anyone in my family. People who cut ties are not bad people. They just can’t take it anymore & are usually the people who tried hardest and family meant most to. What an epic episode of tv.

The generational trauma exposed here and its ongoing effects into the next generation is truly masterfully portrayed. There is a want to end it, but no-one person know how - pride, control, and a refusal to surrender is of biblical proportions and one only the true christmas story can solve. What a brave and potentially healing piece of communication this is for many broken and scarred families. Should be compulsory viewing for parents and older teens.

I powered through the series in the last two weeks and I was glad this episode was given enough time to spill out.

That’s a true alcoholic. The scene was intense.. she def suffers from alcoholism which essentially creates a lot of chaos and trauma that they likely grew up with hence the chaos.. dysfunction, always worrying about mom never feeling good enough. They all likely suffer from severe trauma and may have ptsd which is common in children growing up in such advisements

Oh my goodness, this is very similar to my generational trauma.

Thanks, I quite enjoyed the vid and subscribed. I’m no psychologist either but to me, and this comes from watching friends I know who have the diseases, Donna has narcissistic personality disorder rather than borderline personality disorder, because she is more concerned about feeling offended rather than feeling anxious of offending others. Some fans said bipolar disorder because her heightened moods pitch and swing. I can see that. And you’re so right. Michelle’s and Nat’s marriage to their gentle partners really seem to anchor them. They anchor them. I suppose this is why so many of them are pushing Carmy toward Claire. But Syd is Carmy’s anchor. I don’t know if that means they’ll end up a romantic couple. But I’m glad they have each other the way they do now. And their dynamic is so interesting because both of them are fiery, but they still work.

Really like your explanations about Stevie & Pete, and their relationships with Michelle & Nat.

I’ve just realised what this reminds me of, from when I lived in a high rise (mercifully, not forever) On Sunday afternoons, there were couples who you could set your watch by… No work…a ‘nice’ break…a ‘nice’ meal…a ‘ nice’ drink …just everything…so…’nice’ Actually, either too nice, or not nice enough? Why, they might have to practice real communication with each other! A friend is into the movies of Michael Heneke - very dark humour - & he’s quite familiar with the scenario of people beating the shit out of each other - to the strains of Jennifer Rush (why her, I don’t know - it just always is!) It’s Michael - his violence is to stop himself breaking under the strain: Carmy - the Creative - does what I think empaths do…he pulls back into himself (& away from his family), so that he’s ‘just looking at it’…& the coldness that replaces empathy is what tears him apart - survival mechanism though it is: I enjoyed your commentary - especially the stop-motion: but can you please lose the ‘music’ - it’s just an unpleasant distraction.

Sorry in advance that this isn't about the fishes episode, but rather about Richies character & his development, broadly summorized, in a half asleep fashion. Sometimes I like to challenge my mind, how well it can still function after compromising my brains CPU. The Bear is an equally very smart written show like Breaking Bad or Better Call Saul. In the first scene, we meet Richies daughter, he promises her that he also likes Talor Swift. He is just so tired & exhausted lately. In season 1 we see a broken man, which is filled with many complexes & ego issues, due to an upringing in a dysfunctional family, where a loud volume & swearing rubbed off on everyone, because these are the values they got sent with them along the way as children/adolescents up until it manifested into their adulthood. And Richie comes across as a very stereotypical macko guy, who thinks he knows everything better, due to his insecurities. He always has to prove to everyone that he is the man. Just like during the scene at the hardware store with Sydney. He gives her attitude for her quote "babysitting him" & is too prideful to ask for help when locating the proper tools, since he's once again too insecure about his masculinity. But it is later revealed that Richie is actually very sensitiv & afraid of change as it is evident with the transformation of the restaurant & his fear of getting left behind, because behind his loud & obnoxious character traits, he feels like a hollow shell, who has abandonment issues. And the Forks episode might be one of the best episodes of the series so far. Since ironically, becoming a "Eleven Madison Park D ic head" himself, lol. & embraces the role of the Maitre D & therefore accepts the duty of taking care of people, when Richie had always viewed such a role, as the task of a woman. And I love how he is smiling & singing along to Taylor Swift, full of euphoria as he is driving home after having become a truly changed man, who no longer feels ashamed to accept himself & his new found role as a caretaker, since he is a naturally very charismatic guy & has finally redeemed himself by letting go of his forced masculine facade & no longer cares if he isn't viewed as the though guy among his family & friends hierarchy. I love how well written the script for this show is & how much depth there is to each character. At last, a relatively new tv series that doesn't completely sock & tries way too hard to please the woke crowd. Lol Also, its quite an achievement to having written this quick paragraph in less than 10 minutes...despite the fact that I have been awake for a day & a half almost. That's what life as a chef does to you. You are under constant pressure cooking for pretentious twats & the next thing you know, you get woken up by the "Carbon Monoxide Fairy" as she is presenting you with the scent of of smoke & burning plastic, as you managed to throw in a box of Nuggets into the deep fryer without removing the package. As you fall back asleep & get visited by your sleep paralysis demon Gordon Ramsay, who is shouting at you for not being able to locate the Szechuan Mc Nuggets Sauce, which was very popular during the release of the movie Mulan.
