Last weeks episode was a lot.
It was emotionally draining and answered many of our major questions.
So much so that there was no way this weeks episode wasnt going to feel like filler.
We know shell get there, but we still need that suspense element with two episodes left.
And our entire civilization will collapse.
A very threatened Mike: Exactly!
Midge approaches Gordon to give him the right of first refusal, but he wont relent.
He knows shes right, as evidenced by the standard angrily-tossing-papers-off-the-desk move.
Susie fights tooth and nail for her client, pleading with Pete to put Midge onThe Tonight Show.
Midge, in a very cool move, encourages Susie to accept the offer.
As early as 1961, we see Rose making poor investments with money she doesnt have.
(Whenever I hear romance emporium, I think ofthis place.)
But, hey, shes making a commercial, so business must be going well, right?
But even Midges wealth cant save Rose from her terrible business practices anymore.
Its time to shut it all down.
Logically, Midge understands what the accountant is saying.
Like daughter, like mother.
So, Midge will accept the financial burden for as long as necessary.
She booked a tour in Australia, which likely took her away from her loved ones.
Because everything in her life, including her mothers final days of peace, came at a cost.
Were also treated to a bit of Ethan and Esthers backstory back in the present day of 1961.
So he tried to write with the eraser side of the pencil the kid is SIX.
Given what weve seen in the first couple offlash-forwardsthis season, I could easily argue for Dr. Esther Maisel.
The girl is miserable during both of her 1980s appearances.
At least Ethan already figured out the secret to happiness before elementary school graduation.
Any chance he could let the rest of us in on it?
Poor Zelda and Janusz.
Some people will listen to a great actor recite the phone book.
I, on the other hand, will gladly listen to Tony Shalhoub recite nothing but the word aptitude.
His crisp diction on the p and t are unsurpassed.
As an unapologeticBunheadsfan, Im always overjoyed to see Sutton Foster show up in an Amy Sherman-Palladino project.
