Show topic: Welcome to "The Rehearsal" recap podcast with your host, Ray Taylor. On today's episode, we'll be discussing the second episode of the show titled "Scion". In this episode, we see Nathan develop a rehearsal for Angela, a woman considering motherhood. Nathan hires child actors to simulate adopting and caring for a baby and sets Angela up in a rented farmhouse in rural Oregon. Due to Oregon child protection laws, Nathan's team must covertly switch out the baby every four hours and replace it with a robot baby at night. Angela also seeks a simulated husband and ends up dating Robbin, a man who is obsessed with numerology and wants to have sex with Angela despite her devout Christian beliefs against premarital sex. When Robbin quits the project due to the robot baby's incessant crying, Nathan inserts himself into the experiment as Angela's non-romantic co-parent. Tune in to hear Ray's thoughts on this intriguing episode of "The Rehearsal".
