Plot[]

Lenny Bruce awakens hungover and confused in Midge's apartment after she found him passed-out drunk on the pavement. His abrupt departure angers Midge. Susie books Alfie the illusionist at Joel's club, but he is a "no show". Midge's efforts have made The Wolford more profitable and Susie wants the owners to pay her more. Abe is writing a book and hires Imogene as his typist. A group of rival New York matchmakers demand that Rose quit.

Mei tells Joel she is pregnant. Hoping for national exposure, Susie tries getting Midge booked on The Gordon Ford Show. Midge wants journalist L. Roy Dunham to stop her continual printed attacks, but Dunham refuses, claiming Midge is "good copy." To further entice Susie back as her manager, Sophie, now hosting a TV game show, has Midge hired as the audience warm-up comic. The audience loves Midge, causing a jealous Sophie to jump into her act, triggering a vitriolic comic showdown.
