This episode saved the season for me and I look forward to season 5. What a frustrating ride, watching Midge choose to work a strip club of all places and just generally self-destruct. But enter Lenny, and he (with help earlier from Abe's obit scene) saved it. Kirby's performance was absolutely brilliant and at least nomination worthy. Yes, this season's episodes had funny moments. For me, however, Midge wasn't the only one in a slump - the show's writers were right there with her most of the season. As I said, frustrating.
