Storyline[]
When Edith begins looking for another job, she must overcome both Archie's objections and her own insecurities about possibly being rejected (due to her having been fired from the Sunshine Home).
Edith's drops by the bar before she goes to a job interview at a nursing home, and runs into Murray. She tells him that she's worried about the interview especially because what does she say if they ask about what happened at her last job. Murray offers her some words of encouragement.
