From the horse's mouth!

Warning: Spoilers
The main plot centers on Edith spending a lot of time with Irene and going to her church. Problem ? In one word : Archie .He panics thinking Edith will convert considering he rarely attends church it's even stranger but that's Archie. Bernard Hughes as Father Majeski returns again and makes the comment about the collection plate in that the only instrest Archie would have in it is if he was making change! Lol . Irene also makes the point that Edith already knows the most important thing in life is to love people. Edith never limits who that is.

The subplot has many laughs as Gloria is serving horse meat for dinner! Against the law in New York but not New Jersey were Frank Lorenzo bought it and gave some to Gloria. Funny it was thought it would catch on but it never did .People don't want to eat horse not even non vegetarians . The funniest part is Mike and Edith's reactions to eating horse especially Mike. He's disgusted "I can't eat horse!, I'm eating horse!"Gloria " how is it?" Mike " not bad" !

Is Edith turning Catholic?
Jimmy_the_Gent429 November 2017
Edith is spending so much time with Irene at her church, Archie suspects she may want to convert to Catholicism.

A good episode about religion with a funny subplot about horse meat. Gloria gets some horse meat from Frank Lorenzo to make some steaks for dinner, she tells Mike and Edith about it but not Archie. Archie also has some funny exchanges with Irene and guest Barnard Hughes who returns as priest Father Majeski. There is a big laugh at the end when Archie asks for sandwich from the steak from dinner, saying he is so hungry he could eat a horse! Mike,Gloria and the audience break into hysterics.

Poor Protestants stuck with Archie.
vitoscotti28 December 2021
Archie's religion is a rare glimpse into his mostly unknown heritage. Imbecile Archie sparring with witty Fr. Majeski (Barnard Hughes) is some of the series' funniest. Archie doesn't miss a moment to deliver many funny ignorant insults to Catholics. Amazing Edith's love of life hasn't been diminished married to Archie.
