Storyline
| Plot Summary |
Joy (Janis Paige) is used to getting male attention, while her step-sister, Jackie (Joyce Reynolds), stands on the sidelines. The pair, who have a strong bond, come home from college and meet the handsome Warren (Robert Hutton) at a dance. Despite initially being attracted to Jackie, those feelings are instantly forgotten when he meets Joy. The two sisters vie for his attention, and Jackie decides to undergo a makeover in order to gain his affections. Her makeover has surprising consequences. Written by Lloyd Purvis |

Did You Know?
| Trivia | Both now well into their 90s and nearing the century mark, as of the year 2020, both co-stars Janis Paige (Joy) and Joyce Reynolds (Jackie) are long-surviving members of this cast. See more » |
| Goofs | In the unedited shot of Jackie walking from the airport telegraph desk to an airline ticket desk, the calendars on the walls near each desk are for obviously different months. One has 30 days and starts on a Sunday and one has 31 days and starts on a Saturday, so it is impossible for them to even be adjacent months. See more » |
