Airdate:
12/27/79
Cindy is getting close to delivering, but with Ben spending
long hours at the mill, she suspects she may not be interesting to him anymore.
Enter Corabeth with a new book, “The Fastidious Wife,” and all the ways to
accommodate your man at every turn. Going too far, however, she passes out from
exhaustion, and nearly loses her baby. The doctor informs her to stay in bed

Subplot: Jeffrey and Serena can’t bear too give up a
pregnant, and find it even
Actually a rather silly episode works as feminist tract with
