Feud: Bette and Joan

    Pilot 

     The Other Woman 

     Mommie Dearest 
  • Towards the end, when packing up Bette's room after filming finished, BD asks tearfully if she ruined the picture and disappointed Bette. Bette consoles her and tells BD everything she did right on camera and how beautiful she looked. She memorized her lines and didn't look directly at the camera. She then snarks something about Joan almost ruining the picture.

     More Or Less 

     And the Winner Is... 
  • When Joan had come to ask Anne Bancroft if she could accept her Oscar if she won, we get an extremely touching scene of a younger actress being magnanimous and generous toward an elder when she looked like she seriously needed it. Of course it's tainted by the true reason why Joan wanted to accept her Oscar...
    • On that note, Anne expresses maternal concern for her co-star Patty Duke if the younger actress doesn't win her Best Supporting Actress Oscar, touches on how close Duke and Bancroft were in real life.

     Abandoned 

     You Mean All This Time We Could Have Been Friends? 
  • Joan re-greeting Mamacita and introducing her to her new dog Princess Lotus Blossom.
  • Joan cooing over her new puppy.
  • Joan's visit from her daughter Cathy and two grandchildren. She is seen embracing her grandkids and is reassured by Cathy that she always found her to the best mother in the world and the kids do know she was Happily Adopted.
