No matter how many times I watch this episode it gets me. It raises the stakes of the whole story and moves one character right into the middle of the action. This is probably the most emotional episode of TV that i've ever watched.

Context isn't really even necessary to see this one, and cry like a baby. But of course it is recommended you see what leads up to this. To me, it's the single saddest and most upsetting episode of an animated series ever. See it for yourself and you will agree.....
"Momma, why are they burying my papa? How is papa gonna do his work if he is sleeping forever?" :'( :'( :'( :'(

This is part of my review for every episode of this show. I called this death would happen goddamnit.
I don't actually have much to say about the first half of the episode. It's just kinda there setting up future stuff, but the second half gets emotional. Hughes was a great character and I now realize that the previous episode was even better than I thought. It feels like they wasted the potential of this character, but in a good heartbreaking way.
This ups the steaks as more people could die in the show. The real emotional climax of a death is not the death but the moment after it. Here the grave scene is one the best scenes in the show so far. It's haunting and well-written.
8.9/10 With a stronger opening, I would have rated it higher.

Be prepared to feel emotional, cause this episode is really sad why they kill one of my favorite character😥
I definitely didn't see this coming, the second half set's a lot of lore reveal and conflicts.
Overall:It's a terrible day to rain(10/10)
