Natalie explodes with anger when her parents won't let her take a job with a New York newspaper. She lashes out to her mother about how she's a writer, and how her adopted parents, one a doctor, one a nurse don't understand her. In other words, she's not like them. She then learns the name of her biological mother. Blair learns to use the yo-yo in order to show Jo she can use it just as well as her.
A pretty good episode focusing on Natalie's adoption issues and how she feels like needs to understand herself better. I would have liked to have seen her meeting with her bio mom. But I think the "fact of life" Natalie realizes, is how lucky she is to have had her parents adopt her.
In the funniest moment in the series thus far, we actually get a little physical comedy when Blair tries to demonstrate her yo-yo skills. Man, I howled with laughter when Natalie and Tootie dove out of the way, with Natalie yelling "hit the dirt!" Mrs. Garrett comes in and she has to dive out of the way too. Blair can't control the yo-yo as she exclaims, "it's alive!" Lol. You can see Jo, Nat, and Tootie laughing on the bed. I wonder if the actresses were really laughing, or if their characters were supposed to laugh. I have a feeling it was the actresses and they kept that in. Anyway, I gave it an extra point for all the laughter I had watching that scene. 9/10.
