Part 10/12:
Attempting to evoke a period setting, the episode makes many mistakes—such as depicting high society dance scenes that are historically inaccurate and portraying characters with modern attitudes and speech patterns. This creates a dissonance that alienates viewers familiar with the era and confuses those expecting a true historical narrative.
Adding to the discomfort is the regurgitation of stereotypes involving gender roles—women as gossip-mongering, drunken, and manipulative, and men as emotionally stunted or overly dramatic. The episode fails to treat its characters with respect or authenticity, instead caricaturing them to serve a cheap fan-fiction fantasy.
