Dinner Discussion

The Kominsky Method Season 1 Episode 3

During the dinner after Ilene’s funeral, Norman managed to upset a rabbi who had come to the service. Norman also expressed his disdain that Sandy invited Phoebe to the funeral. Lisa and Mindy recalled when Phoebe used to babysit Mindy and they decided that Phoebe would not be fit to raise children of her own. Sandy went to use the restroom and Norman expressed concern at the frequency with which Sandy was going. Sandy dismissed his concerns, until he realized the small amount of urine that he was actually producing. Phoebe decided to give a toast to her mother, but she quickly made a insensitive remark about Ilene’s charitable causes.

Coat Trouble

Sandy returned to the service and Mindy decided to talk with Lisa about her concerns over her father’s prostate. Sandy found the conversation too uncomfortable and left the pair alone. Meanwhile, Norman was approached by an attendee, Diane, who needed her coat so that she could leave. As it turned out, Phoebe had passed out drunk on top of the coat pile and Norman was unable to retrieve the coat, so he offered to buy Diane a new one. Sandy returned Lisa to her home and went home to try and rest. Before he could leave, Sandy was struck with the urge to urinate again and had to go in Lisa’s garden. At class the next day, one of Sandy’s students, Jude had decided to give a racially tinged monologue from a black character. Most of the students found the monologue to be racist as it was being performed by a white student, but Sandy refused to weigh in.
