  Nothing special... hide show

  Chloe is acting like she is.. but she is eager to have baby and she wastes a lot of money on baby things but always manages to make Susan smile and forget that she will let this change go, as all others.

• Chloe: I'm gonna be somebody's mother.
  Susan: If mom can do it, you can.

• Title: "Men Plan, God Laughs"
  The title of this episode is from a Yiddish proverb, transliterated to "A mentsh tracht und Gott lacht," which in English means "A respected person plans, and God laughs." The Yiddish proverb in turn may be derived from the Biblical verse found in Psalm 33:10: "The Lord brings the counsel of the nations to nothing; he frustrates the plans of the peoples." [edit]
