George Harrison spent years in the shadow of Lennon and McCartney, then released a triple album that outsold anything either of them had made solo. He sought spiritual enlightenment while suing his own bandmates, preached detachment while amassing one of the finest car collections in England, and wrote some of the most beautiful songs in popular music.

This episode traces Harrison from his Liverpool childhood through the Beatles, his immersion in Indian music and Hindu philosophy, and the quiet contradictions of a man who wanted nothing more than to be left alone by a world that would not stop watching.
