Summary
Monty has been dating Charles and Edwin for a couple of months when he decides he wants to learn more about the place where he came from. The place that he tried so hard to connect to on his own, in what scant time he had outside of his mother's wishes and whims.
But with a mother who refused to take him to the synagogue, who did not care about letting him attend services-
Now in his twenties, only a year out from under her roof, Monty's siddur is worn in, but his mouth has forgotten what Hebrew he once tried to learn. His prayers do not feel natural from his own lips.
But he comes from a people that fist fought angels and called out HaShem, and he will not let his fucking mother get in the way of him getting to connect with that.
So with Charles and Edwin’s encouragement, he screws his courage to the sticking place and goes to the local synagogue, and he asks.
Most people wouldn't expect a woman like Crystal Palace to become a rabbi. Ready to debate and challenge HaShem and marry a woman and admit her mistakes and flaws and try to become better.
But that's what makes her great at this.
