 Every member of the family is fed up with having to drive Thelma everywhere. Each one takes turns trying to teach 63 year old Thelma to drive. The results of each effort are worse than the last and Thelma s ready to call it quits! That is,until she gets a call from a hat shop saying if she doesn t get there by 12pm,they ll sell it to someone else. She eyes Fran s (Rue McLanahan)car keys and gets in her car outside. Will she make it and finally try to get her license? (In the outside shot we see Iola s mother Mrs. Boylen for the only time in the series).
