I agree - Wicked totally does not need the publicity. But isn't this a continuation of a storyline from last season, when Henry gets Betty tickets for Wicked and she doesn't go because of the love triangle with his girlfriend? Feel free to correct me on the details, but if it is a daydream, it might be a kind of 'what might have been' reverie of that night?
Why, hello Margaret! Yes darling, half past five. Well, everyone, simply le tout Park Avenue and la creme de Hyannis! Well, the press table's going to be awfully crowded... but if you don't mind sharing a folding chair with Harper's Bazaar... Sing? Me? Heavens no, it's Edie's day, not mine... Although people can be so insistent, and I hate to disappoint. Twist my arm, blackmail me, threaten my very life, and who knows? You might get a verse of something...
