Lou meets a very attractive woman, Sheree North, in a piano bar. She has years of experience professionally, but has also had three husbands and many other relationships. Lou has never been happier, until the guys in the office start giving him the business. Suddenly, he starts to feel old and depressed. Mary realizes that she may be responsible for poisoning the well. Ted and Murray aren't much help. Mary does what she can to try to talk him out of his funk (with a hilarious scene involving his office door). The final scene in the piano bar is stellar Lou Grant. One of my favorite bits is when he intimidates a roomful of people so he can do what he wants.

Nice one

Lou's new romance is with a warm and attractive lounge singer (Sheree North). It is going well until Ted and Murray's jokes about her previous husbands and string of boyfriends prompt Lou to cool on the idea.
The story flows along nicely, North is funny, and there are some great Mary - Lou scenes. Their interaction in Lou's office is extra funny.
In the subplot Mary is redecorating the office and a 'concerned' Sue Ann swans in to veto each of her choices.

Is the lovely lounge singer too fast for Lou Grant ?

Warning: Spoilers
This is a pretty-good episode. Grizzly old Lou Grant meets an attractive and talented lady lounge-singer at a bar/nightclub and he takes quite a shine to her. Everything is going fine,and Lou is in fine form as a lovesick sap that suddenly feels 25 years younger. Well we all know that this cannot last,something bad has to happen,right? The rest of the news crew does some digging,and learns that the lounge singer has been married a few times,and she has had quite a bit of other relationships over the years.
This shouldn't matter,but Lou feels insecure because he worries that he isn't experienced enough to keep the lady's attention for much longer.
(This seems a bit odd,because Lou Grant always seemed like a guy that had been around and had pretty-much seen and done it all..) Lou starts to have second thoughts about dating the lady,and starts to cool-off towards her. After a short time,Lou starts to miss her,and he heads to the nightclub to try and hash things out with her. A crowded piano-lounge is no place to deal with relationship challenges,but Lou is determined. What will happen? Watch and see,and tell us what YOU think !
