Ep 5. Rain

The show "Servant" season 1 episode 5 is titled "Rain" and follows the continuation of the story of the Turner family. In this episode, Leanne, the mysterious nanny who has been the caretaker for the Turner's fake reborn baby, Jericho, begins to show more of her personality and background.

The episode starts with an emaciated Leanne wandering through the streets and being given shelter by a helpful family. This encounter indicates that Leanne may have come from a poor and unstable background which can be misleading. Meanwhile, Dorothy Turner, the mother of Jericho, is trying to cope with the fact that her return to work puts her friend/camerawoman Sean in charge of Jericho's care. She fears that Sean will take a more lax approach to Jericho's safety and well-being and also suspects that Sean may be hiding something about Jericho.

In the meantime, Sean busies himself with playing detective and tries to uncover more information about Leanne's past. He deduces that Leanne has a connection with Jericho's previous caretaker, and in particular, a strange cult-like church. Sean visits this church in an attempt to find more information but is met with a chilling reception from the congregation and clergy.

The episode takes its eerie turn when Dorothy finds evidence of someone sneaking into her house and taking pictures of Jericho in his nanny cam. With Dorothy already on edge because of her return to work, this incident sets her over the edge and she begins to suspect everyone around her, including husband Julian.

The episode concludes with the revelation that Leanne may not be who she says she is and that there is a lot more to the story than what meets the eye. This episode also highlights the constant tension between the Turner's as they try to come to terms with Jericho's death and the belief that Leanne is somehow responsible.

Overall, Servant season 1 episode 5 "Rain" emphasizes the spooky and unnerving atmosphere that has been present throughout the show's run. Its slow-burning mystery elements will definitely make viewers eager to find out more about the truth about Leanne, and how her past and present are connected to the strange cult-like church, and the mysterious death of baby Jericho.
