Although I have never been to a psychiatrist personally, Perrie’s authentic portrayal lent itself to be easily believed. Perrie’s comedic prowess shines thoroughly during “A Marriage Proposal” with sharp diction and side-splitting facial expressions. Perrie’s humanistic portrayal shows that even society’s helpers also need help from time to time."
