Brazil (1985) or: 1984½

Season 10 | Episode 3
1h 29m | Apr 24, 2026

McGee makes E dream of a dystopian duct-based bureaucracy. McGee finds Bobbie DeNiro's revolution a bit revolting, E's filed his praise for Bob Hoskins under the wrong name, and they both soar past a petulant protagonist to bask in the imaginative imagery of Brazil.
