The night, Thackery and Abigail sleep together. Thackery gets up in the middle of the night and visits Sonya Smyslov’s tombstone. He is approached by a groundskeeper, who admires the size and value of the gravestone. Thackery admits the cost of the tombstone was even higher. Afterwards, he returns to the Knick and prepares. Bertie asks him, if he would like to postpone, but Thackery insists he is ready to go. He returns to his office and freaks out. He prevents himself from using drugs and regains his confidence with a phone call to Abigail (Jennifer Ferrin).

He speaks with the man in charged with the film and learns about the material, which is celluloid. Back at the Showalter house, Hobart (Gary Simpson) ridicules Cornelia for neglecting the family and his son. She immediately goes to Phillip (Tom Lipinski) and tells him about the event.

The Knick Review

The 7th episode of The Knick was excellent. It focused entirely on the story and everything that truly matters. We saw the weakness of Thackery, without his drugs. Still, he managed to pull through and pull off a successful surgery with encouragement from Abigail. At the same time, Everett finally made his move and potentially destroyed Algie’s credibility.

All in all, the episode was great and quite possibly one of the best of the season. An 8.5 out of 10 is deserved. Be sure to catch up with previous episodes of The Knick right now!
