Sophies very tightly wound and, again, deeply, deeply insecure.

Sophie Lennon was set in her belief that this was the only way to exist as a female comic.

After her husband leaves her, young mother of two Miriam “Midge” Maisel discovers that she has a talent for stand-up comedy. Could this be her calling?

Sophie Lennon commanded attention and fear to get to maintain her success.

Shes always just creating an outside, a veneer, and hopes that people wont dig too deeply.

As soon as Susie managed to look beyond Sophies facade, her manipulation tactics feel childish.
