Im happy that Midges financial situation continues to be a problem for her.

It is also good to see another career face-off between Midge and Rose.

And how they might be each others best allies in the future.

(A large, sad family is a cash cow, and I want to milk it!

says Rose, as I wonder if its possible to both cringe and do theMeryl applause GIFsimultaneously.)

Susies main management task, however, is rehabbing Sophie Lennons image.

A colossal challenge when you consider that Sophie gets exhausted after hailing a taxi.

As for breaking the rules of whats acceptable on TV in 1960 America?

That, and this could be huge for Gordon Fords ratings.

Sophie is booked, and despite initial nerves, she nails it.

To celebrate, Susie buys herself a six-pack and finally hires a secretary.

The thing is, Im scratching my head over when and how Midge came to this epiphany.

A house he doesnt expect to live in much.

Shy gives a boilerplate response: I wanted a new sound.

Sounds to me like they knew too much.

Think of it as Hollywoods answer to conversion therapy.

Leading the white, male pack is Lou, a.k.a.

And a huge payout.

Speaking of payouts,thatswhy Midge and Susie were invited to the wedding.

Lou and his cronies know about the night in Miami when Midge helped Shyafter he was assaulted.

Its enough to make Midges skin crawl, and she flat out refuses.

Does my renewed respect count?

Its a cute reminder of her onstage tumbleat the end of episode four.

When you think Reggie, you think Westchester.

Susie cracking jokes at my home countys expense is a personal honor.
