Synopsis by Hal Erickson

In part three of Good Times' fifth-season opener "The Evans Get Involved" (originally telecast as part two), the Evans children and Willona (Ja'net DuBois) are saddened when ten-year-old Penny (Janet Jackson) and her abusive single mother Mrs. Gordon (Chip Hurd) disappear. Sadness turns to surprise when they discover that Penny is hiding in the Evans apartment. Angrily admitting that she no longer uphold her maternal duties, Penny's mom abandons her -- leading Willona to consider adopting the girl herself.
