Tonight, Rick (Billy Campbell) is a mess in the wake of the Atlantor scandal,
and an acerbic talk show host only makes him feel worse.

Speaking of shows ABC needs to renew, Once and Again picks up where last
week's superlative hour left off, as Rick faces economic collapse. What a sin
it will be if Billy Campbell's beautifully controlled performance is ignored
by the Emmys — and what a loss it will be if this series is cut short.

brings up a chilling memory.

From Kevin McDonough at United Feature Syndicate:

"Won't Someone Please Help George Bailey tonight?"
This episode is going to be about Rick's work. I believe Rick going on a talk
show (Mason Gould Show) and will be embarrassed. Also I think Rick and Lily
might talk some things out.

From TV Guide:
Once and Again
Won't Someone Please Help George Bailey Tonight?
Personal and professional distress in the wake of the Atlantor investigation begins to take a toll on Rick (Billy Campbell).
For starters, he's grilled by a pushy talk-show host over his alleged involvement in business illegalities. Later, pressing financial and career
anxieties precipitate a clash with Lily (Sela Ward); a climactic, angry showdown with Miles (David Clennon); and a chilling reflection. In a
dramatic “interview” sequence, Rick recalls his father's death of a heart attack. “He died so suddenly and...his affairs were a mess. He basically left us nothing.
He was 44 years old. I'm 43.” Robert: Brett Cullen. Amanda: Christina Chang. Mason Gould: Don McManus.
Cast: Billy Campbell, Sela Ward, Shane West, Evan Rachel Wood, Meredith Deane, Julia Whelan, Susanna Thompson, Marin Hinkle, David Clennon,
Christina Chang, Brett Cullen, Don McManus, Michael Tucci.
