Synopsis
The Tiaras' record attracts attention at home and abroad. Over Luther's objections, Anna and Lillian prepare the girls for a nationwide television appearance. Anna introduces songwriters Karen Prince and George Griffin, and finally recognizes that she is neglecting Ruthie. Ex-husband Abe visits the broadcast to wish Anna well, despite the fact that he and Ben have lost control of their own company. Despite his disapproval, Luther watches from home, and the show goes on.
