Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe first of two subsequent season 3 "clip shows" which are primarily old clips from previous episodes. In television this tends to be a financially-driven decision so only a few minutes of new filming needs to be done. However, sometimes, clip shows are scheduled in order to work around actors' schedules.
- GoofsJust before Dorothy asks Blanche if there was any doubt she would go out with Dirk, the camera quickly zooms in on Bea Arthur.

Featured review
Slightly underwhelming.
Sophia explains that she's moving on, her son Phil badly needs her help, and despite the fact that he lives in a trailer, she feels she needs to do her motherly duty, the girls try to convince her to stay, and recount several, big memories.
I have a problem with this one, it is actually quite funny, but it felt a little lazy in the scheme of things.
Series three has produced multiple classic episodes, this just isn't one of them, the original material is actually very funny, but there's about 3 or 4 minutes of it, the rest all flashbacks, and great as they are, I can't score this episode highly.
The schedule on this show must have been brutal on the stars and team, you wonder why they didn't just make the series a little shorter.
The show was only in its third series, and some of the material was just way too fresh in the mind.
Hopefully the second part is better.
5/10.
