“Dancing in the Dark” · Season 5, Episode 5

In this episode: Dorothy Zbornak (2), Blanche Devereaux (2), Rose Nylund (2), Sophia Petrillo (2), Miles (2)

Rose, Miles called again. He wants you to meet him outside the concert hall.

I asked you to tell him I'm not going.

I'm not gonna do your dirty work for you, Rose.

Well, I don't wanna talk to him. He makes me feel foolish. I don't even feel comfortable telling him St. Olaf stories.

I want to know exactly what he said to make you feel that way.

Look, I'm not going out with him. You go, Blanche.

What?!

Well, you like him, I know you do. So you go.

Well, I couldn't!

Of course she couldn't!

You stay out of this, Dorothy.

Well, why not? It's all over between us. He'll know that tonight.

It's impossible. I'd feel like a... like a...

A backstabbing slut?

...No...

Please go. For me. I'll feel better knowing this thing is finally over with.

Well, since you put it that way. But only as a personal favor to you, honey. I guess I'd better go get dressed. [Blanche exits]

[to Dorothy] Can you believe that backstabbing slut?

You're a college professor?

What did you think I meant when I said I taught Hemingway?

I thought you were old.

[to herself, after turning down Rose's invitation to the ballroom] I'd rather be tied to a tree, covered in honey, and have a family of grizzlies lick it off. ... [pauses for a few seconds, looking increasingly aroused] ...Why do I torture myself like this? [runs after Rose and Dorothy] Girls, wait for me!
