The episode is a train wreck that goes back and forth. In this episode, Truman tries to make amends for his sins especially with the so called swans. Truman was self destructive and had his demons. I love Chloe Sevigny as C. Z. Guest. Answered Prayers is never fulfilled. I don't know what's fact of fiction so I'll take it as fiction. Sadly Truman died and his ashes should have been buried at Westwood was auctioned off at Juliens. I never cared for Truman as a writer. I think the mother had a big part in what he was seeking. Perhaps unconditional love from a woman other than his mother, maybe that's what the Swans were. Jessica Lange is delicious as his mother. Maybe they want audiences to like Truman or feel sorry for him. But I don't, his actions are omly forgivable and redeemable if he really sought it out. While the episodes are entertaining in a dark comedic way, I don't feel the need to research any further. Too bad, his relationship with Harper Lee wasn't examined in the series.
