Disturbingly daunting, and thoroughly engrossing, The Roy family pulls out all the stops as they prevent Congress from destroying their company in "D.C."

It's impressive that all the kids are successful in this episode, and they all gain Daddy's affection, and yet. Who will be the "blood sacrifice"? Go to Full Review

Holly Hunter's last line is a walk-off home run that sums up the entire show: "It's kind of a superpower isn't it? If you can lie to someone like that to their face. I mean, I know you're lying, but I still find you very plausible and appealing." Go to Full Review
