In this episode, we break down I Swear through the three people who changed John Davidson's life: Murray, the friend who didn't need an explanation; Dottie, the woman whose patience never flinched; and Tommy, the boss who saw a worker, not a diagnosis. What unites them isn't training or expertise — it's their willingness to be uncomfortable, and their refusal to let an involuntary action define a person. That's the lesson at the heart of this film, and it's one we think anyone watching could use right now.
