Like the Beep Beep Beep of the Tom Tom (#5.17)

Warning: Spoilers
Blanche is getting some issues, the doctor wants to monitor her heart and she gets a pace maker installed. She gets all the support from her friends but she is also worried about it and decides to give up on sex. When she breaks up with her boyfriend he tries to make her reasonable and goes for the last kiss. And then she realizes that there isn't much different.

Another good approach to a health issue of the age. According to the character many people over 50 have them. But they really touch a good point that when one has to start doing it it gets especially scary.

And the funny part was Rose's "Lullaby", which is the WW1 song "over there".

Blanche gives up the activity which makes her tock.

Warning: Spoilers
After having a procedure to have a pacemaker put in, Blanche claims that she's scared of making love and gives up sex. This is a general plotline with no real subplot, just the three others offering her support, and Rose throwing in a chorus of "Over There!", leading to a funny visual when an elderly patient at the hospital stops and salutes the girls. Rose's attempt at a plot when she tries out dietary substitute never really goes anywhere, although she does look funny in the vacuum pants that are supposed to suck the fat out of the body. you know Blanche isn't herself when she begins making purses out of popsicle sticks.
