Announcer introduction: "It wasn't any surprise to us when Rosie refused to hand over her college money to her father and mother. But for Molly and Jake it was a blow to all their notions about their daughter. The money was supposed to go for Sammy's wife, for Rosie's own sister-in-law. Or, as Molly insists on calling Grace... Rosie's own true sister... Grace has come up with a cock and bull story about needing money, and we know that she has invented it... but Rosie only dislikes her and suspects her... while Molly and Jake have taken Grace into their heart and believe everything and anything she says. The result is a break that's brewing between mother and daughter... Listen..."

Announcer close: "Molly is too righteous and too quick to believe the worst of Rosie and too eager to believe the best of Grace... This isn't usual with Molly, and perhaps only a way for her to hide an uneasiness... a suspicion... a something that she herself doesn't want to face about Sammy's wife."
