The Mourner's Kaddish is the second episode in the first season of Hunters.
Meyer brings Jonah into the Hunters, who are initially reluctant to have him involved, though he quickly gains some acceptance by breaking a code in the toy maker's correspondence. Jonah learns that Ruth was a major part of the Hunters, having built their extensive archive of historical files and more recent interviews. FBI agent Millie, investigat...
After an opening segment involving the Jews in the concentration camps defying rules and playing music, we cut back to Jonah who deciphers a written message and realizes it’s in relation to one of the Nazi’s, Karl Holstedder.
After being introduced to the gang, courtesy of a surreal montage segment, Jonah gets to work with the others. Its here we learn that Holstedder used to host his own singing horror show inside the holocaust camp called The Star Of Buchenwald.

Millie (Jerrika Hinton) dooms Detective Sommers (Tramell Tillman) by showing him the photograph of Gretel (Veronika Nowag-Jones) with Hitler, which is later investigated by Travis (Greg Austin) and leads to the death of Sommers and his entire family. Travis remains one of the show’s genuinely intimidating figures, perhaps more so than the ...

Feb 23, 2020 · When Morris does some snooping around the house, she finds photos of concentration camp prisoners (including children) and a box of teeth. Looks like Hans was a bit of a Mengele during the war and not at all the war refugee he and Gretel claimed to be.
