For the first four seasons, "The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel" has had a very linear storyline. In Season Five, we have flash-forwards to 1981, 1984 and 1987.
This episode is basically set in 1990, when Susie gets honored by the Friars Club. And we get flashbacks to 1961, 1963, 1970, 1973 and 1985 that really establish the storyline on what happens during those years.
And yeah, we find out how Joel ended up in federal prison, and that he got released in 1990. And you realize it was out of his love for Midge.
The ending is simply incredible, and very touching. One of the very best episodes of the entire series!!! As this is written on 7 May 2023, we still have three episodes to go, and I look forward to what unfolds!!!
