The prosthetics on Michael Zegen and Rachel Brosnahan here are great, btw.
Because theres nothing like knowing your cellmate is jerking off to your famous ex-wife.
Theres also some Weissman-Maisel family news.Ethan and his Israeli wife, Chava, have a daughter named Rose.
Once Midge talks about her mother rolling over in her grave, my suspicions are confirmed.
May your memory be a blessing, Rose Weissman.
Sadly, Joel hasnt met his first grandchild but looks forward to doing so in four to six months.
So while we dont know how long Joel has been behind bars, at least hes getting out soon.
Instead of performing stand-up, Midge is now shilling high-quality wigs for large paychecks.
To which Midge retorts, And look where that got you.
If thats true, he deserves every bite of that homemade brisket.
the comedianDinah discovered last season) for his next big picture.
(Can you blame him?)
Plus, George went over Gordons head and committed to a splashy boat cruise for the companys reps. George does the math: comic + mom =ka-ching!
We now pause the central narrative for the wedding of Zelda and Janusz.
An awful person who made me laugh, but an awful person nonetheless.
Its here that Joel starts pressing Midge about Frank and Nicky.
Yep, I guess thats why hes in prison 25 years later.
We all know by now that Susie is the master of the hard sell.
But Susies evening isnt over by a long shot.
Midge messes around with the guys expensive jacket, which accidentally falls into the water.
Shes then hauled away by the Coast Guard in handcuffs.
Suddenly, Im feeling a Mike Carrsanctioned blind rage toward this guy, too.

Much to the exec producers chagrin, Gordon keeps Midge on the payroll and gets her charges dropped.
(Ooof,Peter Friedmans charactersarent having a good week career-wise, are they?)
Midge and Susie may be relieved, but Mike is positively giddy that Georges ineffectiveness is becoming a liability.
I wasnt this happy when my kids were born!
In the words of the great Susie Myerson: Youre a sick fuck, Mike.
Speaking of the great Susie Myerson: The next morning, shes the talk of the town!
Susie, meanwhile, is basking in her success by getting herself a brand-new bespoke suit.
Woo-hoo, Susie!!!!!
Unfortunately for Midge, shes still waiting for her big break.
But before that happens, she must set firm boundaries with her newest fan, Gordon Ford.
Hes holding tight to the no-staff-on-the-show mandate (groan).
But shes wisely holding tight to keeping things platonic because shes not letting an arbitrary rule stop her.
But Midge totally did the right thing here.
