Biography
S5E9 - As part of a series of petty humiliations by Gordon, Plum introduces herself to Midge as “her” stage manager (not the real stage manager, Wes, who handles everything else) for her appearance on The Gordon Ford Show.
S5E9 - Plum escorts Midge to the set and shows her to her stool. She watches as Gordon interviews Midge on air. When Gordon throws to commercial early and Midge goes to talk to her parents, Wes directs Plum to direct Midge back to her stool when it becomes clear that they will be returning from the impromptu commercial. Plum continues to watch as the show returns from commercial and Midge hijacks the show with an unauthorized star-making standup set.
