Synopsis

The Happy Soap Company is owned and managed by the Fraleigh family. Although he is more of a company figurehead than an active participant in the company's day-to-day business, anything that family patriarch Tom Fraleigh wants for the company he usually gets. What he wants is Beverly Boyer--the wife of his daughter-in-law's obstetrician, Dr. Gerald Boyer--to appear as the company spokesperson when Beverly, whom he meets at a small dinner party, mentions a personal true story about how Happy Soap "saved her life". She is to appear in a live commercial spot during a Happy Soap-sponsored television show telling her story just as she told Tom. Despite Beverly's performance going poorly in her own mind, Tom loves how refreshing and honest Beverly came across to the viewer. So Tom signs her to a one-year $80,000 contract to continue doing so. Happy Soap's own managers and advertising company question this, but Gerald questions it even more, believing that her place is at home taking care of their two little ones. As Beverly continues to do the commercials, her fame rises and her professional commitments increase, adding more strain to their marriage. Only a natural act by Mrs. Fraleigh Jr. might save the Boyers' marriage.—Huggo
