Plot
Edit
Elyse is on her way to an interview at an architectural office with Karen Banks (played by Rebecca Balding). She worries how getting this job might affect her home life. The interview is tough, but Elyse pulls through and gets the job. She quickly finds out that she is technologically behind and challenged with her initial project. Elyse and Steven have a (relatively funny) argument about the new work situation. After a disastrous presentation, Elyse reevaluates her position in the workforce.
Music
Edit
- Bill Channing (played by Walter Olkewicz) sings "My Funny Valentine" (by Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart).
Trivia
Edit
- Steven makes an ill-fated reference to Grandma Moses.
- Walter Olkewicz also appears in "Architect's Apprentice".
- Elyse has a difficult time with the new technology (in perhaps a brief homage to the I Love Lucy episode at the chocolate factory, called Job Switching). See the classic clip on YouTube.
