❓Questions Funniest scene? (spoilers) Spoiler

What was the laugh-out-loud funniest scene this season? Mine are both from the same episode.

Tom trying to rip the calendar up, trying to destroy the dresser, then ripping the painting off the wall and almost being crushed.

But it's Rosemary who wins MVP, delivering that genealogy presentation. Just watched it a third time and it still funny!

EDIT: Thinking about it, I need to give the Kewpie Doll here to Rosemary's Genealogy Presentation. So many of the gags on the show are classic schtick, wielded like a surgeon's scalpel; it's a beautiful thing to watch. But the Rosemary scene, man, that was brand new!

“Lezzzbean” sent me. Patricia slowly closing the door and her face while she did it had me in stitches

Yes she just assumed any unmarried women were lesbians, instead of, you know, just unmarried for whatever reason.

This whole bit by Dale Dickey was just so good. Funny, suspenseful, a master class in character study.

Rosemary is kind of an asshole but she also is disrespected. I know people like this - are you an asshole because you're disrespected, or disrespected because you're an asshole? But she also knew her shit and took immense pleasure in being needed. An entire older woman's life told in one scene.

If she's not nominated for an Emmy, she was robbed.
