In this episode, Deb and Maury respond to a listener's comment that is related to Buddhist ideas about enlightenment. Then they dive into Davanloo's first case presented in Unlocking the Unconscious: "The German Architect."

The two begin a table read of the transcript and consider the unconscious relational dynamics between the therapist and the patient as they begin to unfold. They wonder whether a misalliance is starting to happen, and whether that is a necessary part of the procedure.

Deb and Maury end the episode by reminding the listeners that theirs is but one perspective on the case, and they welcome other takes and perspectives, including in the comments.
