Comedy/Drama
Val, a matriarch, comes to five with her daughter, Jackie. Jackie, recently divorced and having lost custody of her daughter, takes her mother in willingly, but also enlists her in a crusade to convert everyone to a Jehovah's Witness.
The two women comb the neighbourhoods with religious magazines, shoring up Jackie's faith, and killing Val's optimism, not to mention her feet! Val's other daughter, Maggie, surfaces after a long absence to be' cold that her mother thinks she's dead - since Maggie vanished years ago, Jackie just thought it easier to lie. Maggie's trying to kick her drinking habit, and hearing this news doesn't help: Reacquainted with her slightly surprised mother, Maggie tries to be the ear Val that needs when she cant stand living with either Jackie's fanatical ways ór her new-found zealot boyfriend, Chris.
Val runs away, but Maggie cant take her in. The hilarious yet dark situations continue as: Jackie develops questions about her faith, and her new husband; Made finds sobriety; and grandmother Val hangs out to help her other granddaughter, Marlene, through it all.
