Plot[]
Midge's first television appearance on a fundraising telethon is marred when she and Susie discover that Sophie Lennon is also appearing. Joel, working for his father, immerses himself into turning Maisel & Roth around. Joel's father offers him $60,000 to leave the company to instead pursue something he really wants to do in life. Joel considers opening a nightclub. Abe is not as happy at Bell Labs as he originally thought he would be. After a still-vengeful Sophie uses her influence to bump Midge to the telethon's latest time slot, Susie angrily confronts Sophie. Midge perseveres and turns Sophie's "punishment" into a huge hit.
