The Deciders

Suddenly, a woman bursts in and says that they have a "big problem with Katie's nipples!" Mia introduces the woman as Wendy, the editor of Havoc. I know her as Mary Testa, Broadway bad-ass and current star of Joe R's fave Xanadu. Not to geek out here, but she has the best interview in my favorite showbiz documentary, Broadway: The Golden Age, By The Legends Who Were There. (You have to say it with the subtitle, every time you say it. It's a rule.) With the Masons looking on with low-intensity horror, Wendy says that Katie's nipples weren't airbrushed out; she wonders if Mia "approved" that. Ushering Wendy out of her office, she says that she's publisher and doesn't handle nipples. Yeah, but there are a ton of thing she does do on this show that an actual publisher wouldn't do either, so why draw the line at nipples? Wendy screams back into the office that they have to send something to Katie, and Mia has to authorize a $20,000 expenditure. Huh? As an apology for her nipples? Does it cost that much to airbrush? Again, who knows? But, PLEASE bring back Mary Testa for more. I'm begging.

Once Wendy has gone, Mia smiles at her parents and says, "She's very energetic." Dad replies, "Welcome to my world." Mom asks Mia if she's seeing anyone, and Mia reminds her that she and Jack just broke up. Mom says that she never liked Jack -- Mia was smarter than he is and he knew that. Which is kind of smart of him, wouldn't you say? Mom tells Mia that she's found someone for her, which immediately sends Mia into a tizzy, but Mom pushes through. She says his name is Jason Chun, he's a doctor, and he has never been married. I guess the "never married" part starts getting unique the older you get. That's an interesting thing to think about. Mom adds that Jason just moved to New York from Seattle, and that his mother says he's very handsome. Mia says that's the "kiss of death," and she's probably right. Mom adds that she has a date to meet Jason at 5 PM that day. Dad says that there's only one way to stop her, but it looks like Mia decides not to shoot her with a silver bullet. She says that she will agree to meet Jason if Mom agrees not to try to set her up with anyone for at least a year. Mom says that she just wants Mia to be happy, and Mia defensively and unconvincingly says that she is happy. Then, she grabs her Blackberry to mark the one-year date of no set-ups in her calendar.
