In their final main episode of this cycle, Margaret and Anton take on the symbolism, motifs, and themes of Young Royals Season 1, Episode 2. While reveling in the wonky and wishy-washy connective tissue, Margaret imagines a version of the show with August's internal monologue, and Anton comes up with (in real time!) a working theory of the thematic symbolism for day and night in the show.
