Jordan is back to break down each episode of AppleTV and Vince Gilligan’s latest television hit, Pluribus! 

Rhea Seehorn plays Carol Sturka, a famous author who becomes one of the very few to survive the apocalyptic virus-type outbreak that transforms the rest of the world into a hive mind.  

In “Grenade”, Carol heads back to New Mexico and binges some Golden Girls on DVD after being hung up on by one of the non-English speaking Others from Paraguay. While the hivemind want to serve her, Carol wants to live normally and tries to go to the grocery store to find it empty. She calls Zosia and demands her grocery store be restocked, before jokingly asking for a Grenade, which of course Zosia provides. Frustrated that the hivemind is continuing to look into how to make the others that are immune joined, Carol pulls the pin thinking its a fake grenade. Zosia discards it but takes some damage. Will she be okay? Will Carol feel sorry for her? Jordan discusses it all!

Jordan is back to break down each episode of AppleTV and Vince Gilligan’s latest television hit, Pluribus! 

Even though episode one and two premiered on the same day, these episodes were watched by him separately with time to record his thoughts in between.

Rhea Seehorn plays Carol Sturka, a famous author who becomes one of the very few to survive the apocalyptic virus-type outbreak that transforms the rest of the world into a hive mind.  

In “Pirate Lady”, Carol rounds up the rest of the immune English speakers to hold a meeting where they can openly discuss their thoughts and how they can move forward and save the world. The issue is these other five people are not willing to step up and help her. Instead, some are enjoying the world as it is now, where they can hook up with people with little resistance, there’s no murders or people imprisoned, animals are free from captivity and more. Can Carol change their mind or will she have to go save the world on her own? 

Pluribus Season One:

Episode Two: “Pirate Lady”

Written and Directed by: Vince Gilligan 

Premiered November 7, 2025 on Apple TV

Synopsis: A curiously familiar face introduces Carol to the bizarre new normal. A gathering in Europe brings strangers together…and causes friction.
