Episode Summary

[x] Remove Ad
When Grace's rebellious, free-loading older sister Janet comes to town to launch her new jewelry enterprise/folding table subway stand, Grace decides to put her foot down casting her sibling away. However, when her tough love prompts Janet to go corporate by taking a 9-5 job and studio apartment, Grace can't seem to handle her new image. Meanwhile, Karen continues to spurn Lyle's proposals, only to have a change of heart after Lorraine stops by for an impromptu visit, to declare her disapproval over Karen's "relationship" with her father.

Grace: Can one of us please leave!
Karen: (To Lyle) Get out.
Lyle: Very well. But know this... Every vagina I--
Grace: Just Go!!

Karen: I've looked all over for you. Where the hell have you been?
Lorraine: In the chorus line of "Taboo", the new Boy George musical.
Karen: You know, that's funny. I was going to go see that last week when I was at the Toofer Theater, but saw "Little Shop" instead.
Lorraine: How was it?
