Trini 2 De Bone

In the episode, a married couple finds that their regular nanny has died and struggle with the idea of raising their son, especially as it appears they barely know him at all.

According to Nielsen Media Research, the episode was seen by an estimated 0.152 million household viewers and gained a 0.04 ratings share among adults aged 18–49.

His wife, Bronwyn (Christina Bennett Lind), is frustrated as their Trinidadian nanny, Sylvia, hasn't arrived to stay with their son, Sebastian (Indy Sullivan Groudis).

At the funeral, Miles and Bronwyn express concern when Sebastian appears to have a more general knowledge of the ceremony and of Trinidadian and Tobagonian English than themselves.

The speech prompts a fight between her family members while a man whom Sylvia babysat (Chet Hanks) films the actions.

In March 2022, FX announced that the seventh episode of the season would be titled "Trini 2 De Bone" and that it would be written by co-producer Jordan Temple, and directed by series creator and lead actor Donald Glover.

And Sylvia’s children vocally resent the fact that random white kids were afforded the attention and care from their mother that they never got to have.

[3] Vulture saw similarities in the episode to the non-fiction book, Raising Brooklyn: Nannies, Childcare, and Caribbeans Creating Community, by author Tamara Mose Brown.

Keying in on the nanny networks, mutual aid, and cultural connections that provide these West Indian women with crucial support and solidarity, Mose situates the women behind the strollers as strategists who expertly negotiate care work and community in the ways that stave off the cultural alienation and isolation embedded in their work.

This week, Atlanta turns toward a white family who employs an Afro-Trinidadian woman as they grapple with, in Mose's words, 'losing ground' to her ingenuity and influence in the rearing of their child.

"[8] Jordan Taliha McDonald of Vulture gave the episode a 4 star rating out of 5 and wrote, "Throughout this season of Atlanta, the show has grappled with the ghosts of the past at every turn.

Club was more critical, giving the episode a "B−" and writing, "Part of the problem is that Atlanta has raised the bar for itself so high that it's easier to stumble, or seem just okay.

"[10] Deshawn Thomas /Film wrote, "With these standalone episodes, it feels as though Atlanta is aiming to rival or compete with someone like Jordan Peele — and falling short of doing so in any meaningful way.

"[11] Kyndall Cunningham of The Daily Beast, "I think more than any other episode this season, this one highlights the identity crisis Atlanta is currently experiencing regarding who its audience is and who the writers are crafting stories for.
