This is a creative episode where it focuses entirely on Susie and what she eventually became. It involves a kind of celebrity roast where she is the object of destruction, but she is like a Sherman tank when it comes to personal attacks. People get up an tell stories, or sit at table and exchange stories. We are given a crash course in her accomplishments and failures, her connections to the mob, her loves and her betrayals, her goodness and her badness. Because the writing is so good, what could have been a disaster becomes a gem. The final scenes are so moving. Susie is suddenly completely taken with emotions--which for her is usually beyond the pale. I adored this episode.
