Karen had planned to throw Rosario a quinceanera after she was discharged from the hospital.
That never happened, so in true Will & Grace fashion, Rosario’s funeral was a hybrid quinceanera.
Grace, Jack and Will all took turns comforting Karen.
Grace addressed her own mother’s death and her own emotional reaction, and despite Hayes’ impressive feat of physical comedy, it was McCormack’s Will who got through and understood Karen’s grief.
She missed the mass, but had her own moment to say goodbye.
“Sorry I wasn’t , but come on, what the hell was I going to say? She was my maid, she was my sparring partner, she was my best friend? You were my everything, Rosario Yolanda Salazar. You know it’s funny, people keep asking, ‘What do you need? What do you need?’ I need for you to not be gone. Here honey, I want you to have something that was my mother’s. Makes sense you should have it, lord knows you’ve been eying it for years,” Karen said handing her a ring.
Karen sprayed the coffin with cleaner and scrubbed it with some tulle as punctuation to the emotional goodbye.
If this episode doesn’t clinch Mullally an Emmy nomination for her expert work in this revival then nothing else will.
