There are great episodes of The Golden Girls, but this is definitely one of the best episodes. Dorothy’s younger brother Phil dies, and the family is having him buried in Miami instead of New Jersey. Phil, who is never seen during the series, was a crossdresser his entire life. Sophia is also forced to confront Phil’s wife, who she’s never gotten along with. She can’t understand why his wife didn’t try to stop his crossdressing, even though it was happening long before her. In the end, Sophia is forced to confront her grief over not only the loss of her son, but accept who he was.
