Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Apprenticing as an art buyer for E.H. Wright, Whitley (Jasmine Guy) purchases some paintings by a promising but unknown artist--thereby going against the specific instructions of her new boss. It looks like Whitley's career is over before it has even begun, until an unexpected development occurs. Elsewhere, Freddie (Cree Summer) tries to draw listeners to her new radio call-in show by adopting the alternate personality of a Jamaican philosopher "Mother Eartha".
