synopsis
Worried about a family of blue jays that has nested in the sign in front of Mel's Diner, Vera (Beth Howland) climbs upward to shelter them from harm. Alas, what goes up generally comes down, and poor Vera is no exception. Seriously injured, she is whisked off to the hospital--where the rest of the diner staff show up to pay their respects, only to mistake another bandaged-up lady for Vera!
