What did Django throw up in Your Honor? The gruesome scene, explained

Showtime's Your Honor weaves a complex and gripping tale as a hit-and-run case spirals into a web of crime, deceit, and dilemmas. The story follows Michael Desiato, a respected New Orleans judge, as he desperately tries to protect his son, Adam Desiato after he accidentally kills Rocco Baxter, the son of mob bosses Jimmy and Gina Baxter.

In season 1 episode 7, the plot takes a particularly gruesome turn in a scene involving Django, the Desiato family's dog. This installment starts with Michael and Frankie (Tony Curran) disposing of the body of a man who had been blackmailing Michael with a video of Adam's crime.

As Michael cleans up the crime scene, he accidentally leaves behind a piece of the blackmailer's brain, which Django later consumes and throws up, leading to a shocking revelation.

What did Django throw up in Your Honor?

In episode 7 of Your Honor season 1, Django throws up a piece of the blackmailer's brain. Michael and Frankie drown the blackmailer’s body, and while in a hurry to clean up, the former accidentally misses a fragment of the brain. Later, while he is at home, Django picks up this fragment and eats it and Michael tries to pass it off as offal. However, it’s clear that the dog has consumed something far more gruesome.

Viewers then witness a disturbing moment when Django throws up the piece in front of Michael and Adam, revealing the horrifying oversight. This incident adds another layer of tension and horror to the narrative, as this brain fragment directly links back to Michael’s crime scene, potentially exposing his desperate cover-up efforts.

The scene is especially harrowing as it highlights the chaotic consequences of Michael's attempts to protect his son. It also serves as a reminder of the lengths to which he has gone to cover up the crime.
