    Friends can be savage.

    Dorothy is made up, when her friend from School, Trudie, arrives for a stay, together with her husband. Rose and Blanche are shocked at the way Dorothy and Trudie interact with one another, they are pretty savage when one a other.

    It is so funny, another classic episode from this wonderful fourth series. The jokes are plentiful, with Blanche providing several laughs, but od course the bulk of the honour comes from the wonderful interactions between Dorothy and Trudie.

    Favourite scene had to be the moment that Dorothy gets her revenge, great scene.

    A lot of us have a friend like Trudie, someone that we can have banter with, in The UK, we'd say someone that you can take the **** with.

    Anne Francis did a fine job as Trudie, I'd love to see her appear again.

    8/10.

    Bea Arthur one of the most talented.

    Whoever wrote a review saying that Bea Arthur was untalented and referred to her as a moose has the intelligence of an oxen. What is most evident, this person had the most "deficating" of self esteem in self as could ever be presented by another human being. Also, this person has no concept in "body shaming" as evidenced by their written word. The only BAD TASTE in this writing is done by the author of this ridiculous gesture of writing which the author cannot proclaim. In reality Bea Arthur is not only a dedicated actress, but she has demonstrated her agility as the same and is renowned over and over by those who appreciate the "art of acting" and theatre. The person who wrote this evidently needs to work on their own self image and self esteem.

      Trudy McMann: Dorothy Zbornak, this is the most underhanded, sneaky practical joke anyone's ever played and I have just one thing to say: boy, have I missed you!
