(fast forward thru the commercials and B roll, a lot of tiresome snippy banter in the subplot.)
A roll= Baal teschuva as analogous to potential for positive change and self-realization, is triumphed by the character who champions the 'grey' over black and white, i.e is revealed to be bisexual.
Terrible fake beards, lots of unresearched details (wardrobe, accents, hair), and it's clear that someone in the writing department has been hanging out with a chabad shliach. Apart from that, a nice story, not as exoticizing as usual.
