Awwwww, Poor Lonely Dick!

Ah, the sad sensation of loneliness-something that Dick has to reckon with in this episode, "Lonely Dick." Mary Albright goes on vacation, but she does not leave any contact information with Dick-only with Nina. Dick misses Mary very much and begins to feel lonely without her. Still, he will find other ways to act up. Meanwhile, Sally enters the world of cosmetics. Tommy has a new girlfriend in his life, August (played by Shay Astar).

I thought this was a very fun episode. Phil Hartman made a guest appearance and is really good! It is unfortunate that this is one of his last appearances ever since he was murdered shortly after this episode was released. August is one weird girl, but weirdness is something that flows with this family. Also, Sally begging for free samples is really worth watching.

Quote of the Episode:

Phillip: Your 'friend' is pretty demanding. Harry Solomon: Oh, he's not my friend, he's my Supreme High Commander. Phillip: I was in a relationship like that once.

My Grade: B+

Well, she's not at the Bangkok Sheraton.

Lonely. He's Mr. Lonely. He has nobody to call his own.

That's right-- he's "Lonely Dick." Mary's out of town, and he feels a certain emptiness knowing she's not there. But of course, he won't let that stand in the way of being a total jerk as always.

When has it ever?

Additionally, Sally becomes addicted to cosmetics, Harry is lured into the world of "Skin Care for Men," and Tommy meets a very mature young girl named August. And guess what? Every last second is well worth it, from Sally's frazzled begging for more free samples to Harry's huge racial blunder.

"What do you think?" "Me like."
