Kate asks her lay preacher father to clarify The Farewell Discourse following The Last Supper - central to Emma Darwin’s faith.

It's also a source of disagreement between her and Charles.

Tim Jackson's drama investigates Darwinism from the perspective of a woman ambitious to win in the rat race of modern academia.
