Grace is back after an unintentional break and she gets into the last two weeks of Mets baseball. She talks about how good the Mets have been over the last month, and the week before the All-Star break. She talks about the Home Run Derby and the All-Star Game, and then gets into the Mets road to the trade deadline.

Next, she talks about Marcell Ozuna's attempt at gaining forgiveness. There's been a media offensive this week to talk about how great he actually is, and Grace isn't falling for it. She talks about the standards public figures should be held to (read: the same as everyone else if not more) and how we shouldn't be forced to forgive someone who committed crimes against someone. She also gets into this in regards to certain non-Hall of Famers.

Finally, Grace has another throwback movie minute, this time to 1977 and her favorite Steven Spielberg movie. She gets into what makes it so great and it's foundation for his future films and the industry.
