Mr. Sheffield wants to buy himself some time before his relationship with Fran grows, so he asks Fran to redecorate the kitchen. Fran invites her cousin Sheila over to help her, and Sheila proposes a special aphrodisiac decoration to give Fran a little push in conquering Maxwell’s heart. But Fran finds the similarities between her life and her cousin Sheila’s too big and fears that Mr. Sheffield will dump her after seeing the new decoration (exactly what Sheila’s husband did to her). Fran decides then to do her own decoration, and Maxwell loves it.
