Joan is reminded that her health is not getting any better, and that she should start considering her condition, especially at her age. However, she is more concerned about her appearance than anything else. Bette, on the other hand, is also feeling that Hollywood is moving on without her. It is pointed out to her that Joan could be the only other person who understands where she is coming from.
The episode will mark the season 1 finale of the show, effectively closing the chapter on "Bette and Joan." The second season will focus on a different famous feud, tackling the story and relationship of Prince Charles and Princess Diana.
Meanwhile, here is a brief recap of the previous episode titled "Abandoned!"
After having had enough of Bette's ways to undermine her, Joan went on a strike of sorts and pretended to be sick in order to halt production for "What Ever Happened to Cousin Charlotte?" which was eventually renamed to "Hush... Hush, Sweet Charlotte." However, she ended up being sued by Fox and being replaced by Bette's friend, Olivia (Catherine Zeta-Jones).
"Feud" season 1 airs Sundays at 10 p.m. EDT on FX.
