Marcus and Deanna review Season 1: Genesis. Is a shadowy figure secretly pulling God’s strings from behind the scenes? What’s the best use for the ark now that shooting is done? What counts as a blessing anyway? Tune in for the answers to all of these questions and more, plus the winners of the season-wide Weirdest Name competition!

Season finale! Jacob comes down with an acute case of “I’m gonna die soon” and gathers his sons for one last chance to complain about that time Reuben had sex with Jacob’s concubine. Jacob also attempts to bless Joseph’s sons but Joseph comes out of left field with an obsession about using the “right” hand. Asher appears destined to run a world class bakery, and Simeon and Levi reminisce about peaking in high school. After Jacob is mummified, wrestling legend The Undertaker literally crashes the funeral and God once again makes the eulogy all about him. Egypt closes for 70 days while all the civil servants bring Jacob’s body to the family mausoleum in Canaan, and the resulting backup in paperwork nearly destroys the economy. Joseph’s brothers fear that without Daddy around, Joseph will go back to his vengeful ways. But Joseph forgives and forgets before he too dies, is mummified, and presumably prepares for a Season 2 return as a zombie. (Genesis 47:28-50:26)

Joseph pulls the plug on his revenge plans after his brothers turn their groveling up to 11. Joseph removes his glasses in a Clark-Kent-to-Superman-style striptease, but his brothers don’t believe it’s him until Benjamin confirms the match with his cool sci-fi de-cloaking device. Following this tearful reunion, the brothers try to convince their dad that meeting Joseph in Egypt isn’t just some online scam. Jacob’s convinced to make the trip after God stars in a fast-talking radio commercial. Pharaoh offers them the best of Egypt even though their chosen profession is apparently a moral affront to all right-thinking Egyptians. The episode ends with the Egyptian government backsliding into a form of capitalism that makes The Wolf of Wall Street look tame. (Genesis 44:18-47:27)
