'Camping' review episode 2: The camp goes to town and things get politically insensitive while Kathryn works herself up

With the second episode, 'Camping' uses contemporary political elements to make the characters take a stance. And now Jandice is clearly in Kathyrn's bad books.

Creators Lena Dunham and Jenni Konner's HBO show 'Camping' has taken its much-desired turn by bringing several contemporary elements to the table. While the first episode had chiefly concentrated on introducing the characters and the dilapidated relationship that they share, episode 2 'Going to Town' has given us a glimpse into the dynamics between the characters and what happens when one begins to share politically incorrect statements. 

Episode 2 begins with a game of rugby football where the gang has teamed up to fight each other and strike the highest score. Kathryn (played by Jennifer Garner) is on the top of the game with her quick sprints and organized skills, and on the other hand, Jandice (played by Juliette Lewis) crashes into the field with all her might. So much so that she manages to push Orvis (played by Duncan Joiner), Kathryn and Walt's (played by David Tennant) son. Kathryn is immediately taken aback by the act, and it takes her almost no time to snap at Jandice who walks away when she realizes that her apology is not accepted.
