Plenty of funny moments here.

Blanche is upset and annoyed when she breaks open Rose's diary, and reads some derogatory comments, Rose is equally upset by the invasion of her privacy. Sophia is dating a guy named Rocco, who is believed to have links to The Mafia.

What a great episode, there are some wonderful, sharp one liners. The whole diary sequence is hilarious, I'm not sure there is anything worse that you could do to someone, reading their private, personal thoughts.

'The man is taking diuretics for a prostate problem,' Sophia has all of the best one liners here, she's on great form.

Rocco is one great character, what incredible delivery, I absolutely loved seeing screen legend Mickey Rooney in the show, he's wonderful.

Very funny.

8/10.

Trivia
The game board used at the end of the episode is from the game "Sorry!"

Goofs
The trivia game the girls are playing at the end is obviously a modified Sorry! game board with "Chance" and "Community Chest" cards from a Monopoly game.
