The always cuttingly funny Jane Lynch returns for the second of her two guest episodes of Happy’s Place as the delightfully horrible Val, bartender Gabby’s (Melissa Peterman) narcissistic mother. Mommy dearest has become Mommy nearest by rooming with Gabby indefinitely, but the tight space leads her to consider buying tavern-owner Bobbie’s (Reba McEntire) late dad Happy’s vacant home.

“Gabby wants me to buy it because Gabby is committed to fixing our relationship and is going to live with me,” Lynch says. “Gabby, God bless her, like she’s done all her life, starts to think, maybe my mother has changed, and I can get water from that very dry well. Of course, she can’t.”
