You are going to LOVE the final two episodes of ‘Downward Dog’s’ phenomenal freshman season. “Getting What You Always Wanted” and “Lost” are loaded with feels. You’ll be crying one minute and laughing the next. Martin has some of his most meaningful musings yet and Nan’s life reaches a pivotal crossroads. This is a beautiful way to wrap-up Nan and Martin’s season-long journey of self-discovery and it totally leaves the doggy door open for more adventures.
Here are ABC’s official descriptions for the back-to-back finale and images from the penultimate episode:
“Getting What You Want” airs Tuesday, June 27 at 10/9c.
Nan’s long-anticipated national campaign is hours away from launching in Times Square on the Jumbotron, when an overwrought Nan discovers an algorithm has been flipped, and instead of blocking penis photos from the photo feed it will choose them, which could torpedo the whole campaign. Meanwhile, Martin decides to reduce Nan’s stress by taking out his sworn enemy, Pepper, to unexpected results.
“Lost” airs Tuesday, June 27, at 10:30/9:30c.
To take a break from the pressures of a major decision at work and the mess she’s made of her life, Nan decides to take a vacation. On the way, she stops by her estranged father’s place in the country, hoping to say hi and go. Instead, she discovers he’s selling the family home. While Nan tries to pack up some childhood treasures, Dad takes Martin for a walk — but Martin, runs off into the woods, hoping to prove he’s wild and free like a wolf. Instead, he discovers he’s not a wolf – he’s a dog who’s lost.
