Although there are elements I like in this story by Penelope Spheeris*, such as Crystal standing up for Roseanne, and Jackie doing her "tough cop" thing, I just don't think it's that funny or realistic. Roseanne's former employer, Mrs. Meg Wellman (Debra Mooney), hits Roseanne's car and everyone urges Roseanne to sue. Debbie (Melora Walters) and Iris (Lori Tan Chinn) return, but Marsha is strangely absent from all the scenes at her beauty parlor.
*Yes, that Penelope Spheeris, a couple years before she directed Wayne's World. She and her co-writer, Bill Gerber, didn't work on any of my other shows except I think as story editors on Roseanne.
