Brianna likes seeing him in action, and when he adjourns his class so they can go on a date to see a silent film, she asks if that’s what he’d really say. Brianna sneaks into his classroom to hear him lecturing an intimate group of students about how they disappointed him with their essays on “famous last words.” The students challenge him about what he would say for his last words, and he supposes it would be that history can forget his name, as long as his words and deeds live on in the hearts of those who loved him. Have you ever noticed that is a show about trauma? How many times have we watched these people suffer something horrible, shut down and then claw their way back to life? “Famous Last Words” is another entry in this series, and it’s beautifully done.The episode opens with a flashback to Roger ( ) teaching in 1969.
