synopsis
In hopes of one day working alongside her mom Maggie (Joanna Kerns) at the "Long Island Herald", Carol (Tracey Gold) asks Maggie her honest opinion of an article she has written for her school magazine, the "Walt Whitman Chronicle." Unfortunately for Carol, Maggie is honest to the point of brutality, causing an enormous amount of family friction. Elsewhere, Mike (Kirk Cameron) and Ben (Jeremy Miller) get in over their head when they sample the "pleasures" of off-track betting.
