Plot summary
Melanie announces that she is breaking up with Mitch after just a few dates, so Joy finally admits to her that she is interested in Mitch. Melanie says she's meeting Ross Barkley ( Chevy Chase ), the head of the "People Feeding People" charity, for dinner. Elka asks Melanie if she can get Ross's endorsement for her city council bid, while Victoria is hoping Ross will allow her to be a spokesperson for the charity in order to keep her face on TV for the Oscar voters. Joy uses the opportunity to try and convince Mitch that Melanie is moving on. But Melanie becomes creeped out by Ross soon after he reveals gruesome details about a past incident.
