You forgot when Dorothy and Blanche are being interviewed as ‘lesbians’ and Sophia asks Dorothy about how the lifestyle has after her mother, and Dorothy replies ‘I don’t know, I’ll have to ask her when I see her next, at THE HOME.’ That scene will always make me die laughing.

I loved her, hard to believe she was 5he youngest xx

[@jyow-xe7pw]

She was also the most inexperienced

Rue/"Blanche" was the youngest, born in 1934. Over a decade younger than the rest, in fact. Betty/"Rose" and Bea/"Dorothy" were both born in 1922; Estelle/"Sophia" in 1923.

Sophia was the best. I was a kid when this was on but watched just because she was so funny 😂

[@theresaholguin699]

The way Sophia tells how Shady Pines was sometimes its true. I used to do security in a retirement home. The patients didn't have visitors. No children hardly came to visit. Its really sad how their children never visited

“They did not make you eat cat food at Shady Pines” The fact that she immediately knew what it was implies to me that they definitely did
