Black holes, as we know, are fascinating phenomena with a tremendous gravitational pull that attracts everything around them, including light. However, the episode takes the audience beyond black holes and focuses on the supermassive black hole in the center of the galaxy.

The show uses fascinating visuals, including animations and real-time footages collected from telescopes, to explain in detail the working of the black hole and its gravitational pull. The audience learns how the immense gravitational pull of the supermassive black hole has resulted in the unusual orbits of stars in the surrounding area.

The show also delves into the theories around the formation of Sagittarius A*. Through its journey, the audience gets answers to questions like how Sagittarius A* itself was formed, the process behind its massive size, and how it's connected to the existence of our galaxy.

Another highlight of the episode is the discussion around the possibility of the supermassive black hole one day consuming every star and galaxy in the universe, which is certainly a mind-boggling thought.

Additionally, the show raises some valid questions about the importance of the supermassive black hole in maintaining the balance of the universe. It explains how the black hole is essential in protecting the galaxy and other neighbors from catastrophic events like supernovas.

The episode also features interviews and insights from some of the leading experts in the field of astronomy and astrophysics. Their explanations and theories add an extra layer of depth to the audience's understanding of the subject.
