Ms. Babcock I Presume

Another zinger from Niles mocking CC's Safari outfit. Actually Lauren looks excellent in it when she takes the helmet and scarf off.

Maxwell has a toothache. At the breakfast table, Fran insists Max takes care of his tooth. She also tells him she has an uncle Myron who is a dentist and works on Saturday's. Max reminds Fran that he promised to take the kids to the zoo with CC Fran makes the suggestion CC takes the kids to the zoo.

Uh oh, this probably isn't going to go well and it doesn't.

I love the short bits with Uncle Myron's grandson Robby, "the tap dancing genius". Especially the 2nd time when Robby tells CC he can juggle as well as dance. CC's response is extremely mean, as you would expect. ...but hilarious due to her delivery.

Gracie disappears twice in the episode. Fortunately the 2nd time she's not far away and that sets up a touching moment with Fran & Gracie in the ladies room.

Lots of laughs in this enjoyable episode.

Yes. She really got Brighton to spill his guts!

Niles says to Mr. Sheffield right after C. C. said she had a marvellous time at the zoo with the children today. (Maxwell couldn't accompany them as he had a bad toothache and needed to see a dentist, so C. C. was Nanny for a day). It couldn't be further from the truth as their zoo trip was a disaster. Brighton threw up in C. C.'s helmet....and we found out later in C. C.'s purse as well.

Not too many spoilers but this is an episode that brings Fran & Gracie even closer together AND a line is drawn in the sand for C. C. regarding the children. Fran makes it clear that these are now her kids.

Fran tells C. C. "Yaw a lovely woman and I wish you well but if ya evuh hurt MY KIDS again....they'll be washing your blue blood off the walls. ...and I mean that in the nicest possible way!

Take that C. C.!

For me this was an excellent show!

C.C. is nanny for a day.

Wearing perhaps the ugliest bridesmaids dress ever, Fran has the day off, and C.C. agrees to take the children to the zoo while Maxwell has a dentist appointment. In addition to Brighton throwing up in C.C.'s pith helmet, she looses Gracie who shows up at Sylvia's house, troubled by C.C.'s statement that Fran only takes care of the children because she gets paid to do so. This episode is nice for details into Gracie and Fran's relationship as well as a chance to see C.C. being more vulnerable for a change. The presence of an obnoxious kid singing put on a happy face over and over is a bit annoying, but outside of that, this is fairly enjoyable.
