"Brothers & Sisters" Episode 206 Recap: “Two Places”

Travis looks like he’s having as hard a time deciphering that as I did. He doesn’t like Mr. Mumbles one bit. Travis asks Kitty if Robert knows about the change of wedding plans. Kitty and Mumbles exchange nervous glances.

At this point, Nora barges in and starts yammering away about why a big wedding is essential. What, does the building have no security?

Mumbles: Scooshme. Scooshme whoer you?
Nora: I’m Nora Walker

Criminy, I’d heard that Danny Glover was being introduced as a potential love interest for Nora. Is this supposed to be their “meet cute?” Not a good start.

Commercial break and when we come back Nora, Mr. Mumbles and Kitty are meeting privately to discuss the need for an actual wedding ceremony.

Nora: (points to Kitty) When this child was four years old she put a dishtowel on her head, pretended it was a veil and walked down the aisle as if to prince charming.
Kitty: That was Kevin.

Okay, score one for Kitty. That was pretty funny. Nora protests and says that actually it was both of them.

Nora: Robert and Kitty deserve more than drop ceilings and fluorescent lights. Fluorescent lights, Kitty!

Mumbles tells Nora if she can pull off an actual wedding by Monday morning he’ll leave it in her hands.

Nora is all relieved and races home to plan Kitty’s shotgun weekend wedding.

Cut to Sarah’s office. She’s getting the news from Nora that the nuptials have been moved up. Then Sarah gets another call – it’s Paige’s school. Sarah looks grim. Apparently something bad happened.

Sarah: I’ll be right there.

Cut to McAllister’s office. Mr. Mumbles is overseeing the ordering of lunch. Enter McAllister, who’s not at all pleased to see Mumbles.

Rob Lowe is in that same fitted blue shirt. Give it a rest already. Sure, the color sets off his eyes but cinched at the waist like that, from behind it makes him seem a bit hippy.

He asks if he can speak with Kitty privately. Once Mumbles leaves, McAllister lays into her for hiring such a “barracuda.”

McAllister: That is who you think you need to get things under control? Why don’t you just hire G. Gordon Liddy?

Kitty tells him to calm down.

Kitty: You wanna get through this wedding and you still wanna be a viable Republican presidential candidate? Then you are gonna have to get a hold of your testosterone, and you are just going to have to suck it up.

Wow, that’s vaguely lewd. I wonder how many hands he’ll need to “get hold” of his testosterone?
