Reviews (2)
A wordy episode with no major highlights, except maybe the last few minutes. Apart from an interesting auction scene and a fresh wind in the sails in the form of Polly's son, who has "smart eyes" and fits well into the concept of the family business, there is nothing too memorable.

The recruitment of new bakers was fantastic, and the realistic throat-slitting scene was quite impressive. Surprisingly, I even enjoyed the auction scene — if I knew these things had such exciting endings, it might just become my new favorite pastime.
