Marla Maples ripping up a pic of Trump


Am I misremembering things? I seem to recall there was an episode mentioning Marla Maples, but she doesn't show up until late in the episode. She makes some remarks and tears up a picture of Donald Trump. Thanks in advance to anyone who can clue me in.

I remember that episode! Classic Julia moment. Julia was always my favorite.

I never understood that with Marla since she was his mistress and she knew how he treated his wife. What goes around comes back around.

I just watched that episode right after election day, then found out she ended up marrying Mr. Heat Miser anyway. It's a good episode because it really gives a clue into who Alison is underneath her obnoxiousness and shows another side of Julia in really caring for her cousin who up until then had been pretty much a snit with her. The phone call is priceless. And you know what, "Most of us still do not care."
