Debra Messing's performance in the kitchen while Will was coming out, after he came out, and then in the scene in the bar with. Ellen? That should be a case-study in the humor of the absurd in suffering.
Grace is utterly suffering. More than Will by far, and then it just piles on. She stands up for herself to him, but then Bobbie Adler comes in and crushes her. And then her sister crushes her even MORE. Then in the bar, Ellen DESTROYS her and that's when you know Grace is done with it because she defends herself by stopping Ellen.
Master class in comedy acting.
McCormack's brilliance? Body language in the bar during each and every setup for flashbacks. OMG.
