The new title for the musical based on Marilyn Monroe's life could equally be used for this episode.
Frank proves that he is no ordinary science teacher by his reaction when he discovers Julia's affair. He really asserts himself as a man, but is he really?
The Anjelica Huston character shows that she can be nasty, especially when Ellis wants to be the co-producer. Her condescending, demeaning response shows what she is really made of. No wonder her husband took off.
The saddest part of the episode is Ivy's rapid decline. Her taking to pills leads to a disastrous performance while on stage. How coincidental that Karen was returning glasses to her and the two seem to be hitting it off while hitting the bottle.
