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.
Meanwhile in Florida, Millie continues her investigation and visits Detective Sommers, showing him the picture of Greta and subsequently building another link from her colleague’s expertise. Millie follows the lead after finding out Greta’s case has been completely wiped from the system and visits Frannie Fischer, who tells her her husband died in a car accident. Only, when she searches through his belongings after excusing herself, she finds a medallion and pictures that hint at him being a Nazi.
In Washington, The Colonel arrives and blackmails the Senator. There’s not much to this storyline this episode but suffice to say, this isn’t the last we’ve heard from this antagonist.
With a plan in action, the hunters circle Holstedder’s house before converging in the main atrium, proceeding to tie him down and give him what the Jews never had – a fair trial. With witness statements from Buchenwald, Lonny stumbles upon a hidden room and after picking the lock, he and Rox head in and find a homegrown radio set-up, one that appears to be broadcasting a message.
When they ask Karl, he refuses to engage, leading them to torture him through a grueling sound endurance test. Eventually Jonah convinces Geyer and the others to stop, and it’s here Holstedder announces that he was just following orders in playing tapes.
