If anyone knows if there is a Mimi Slocum-type character living in Georgetown, we want to interview her. As you can see from this colorful scene from “Igby Goes Down,” Susan Sarandon, playing the pill-popping, neurotic Georgetown socialite Mimi Slocum is sitting on her maid. Though most of “Igby Goes Down” takes place in New York, the scenes involving sheltered affluence in Georgetown is always entertaining. (Do good Georgetown children kill their mothers, as in “Igby”?)

So if you’ve seen “Igby,” you probably recognized the hospital scene at the George Washington University hospital, named in honor of Ronald Reagan, who recovered from the 1981 assassination attempt on his life at the Washington Hilton. So to answer the first clue, that is the connection between Reagan and Sarandon.

So what about the second clue, the Road to “Irreparable Loss”?
