One of my favorite episodes thanks to memorable performances by Rue and Ken Howard. Dorothy's hot affair with an actor who impersonates George in a performance of Beatlemania gets expected laughs. But it's Blanch's thwarted attempts to seduce a blind date (beautifully portrayed by Ken Howard) that leads this episode into unexpected areas of genuine tenderness and romance. The writers outdid themselves with this exceptional episode: the final two words, uttered by Blanch, just might break your heart.
