Celia Weston joins the cast as Jolene Hunnicutt, a tough-talking female trucker. During a stopover at Mel's Diner, Jolene escapes her rapacious male driving partner by hiding in the ladies' room--at which point her partner leaves her stranded. With no other recourse, Jolene accepts a job as Mel's new waitress, thus filling the gap left by Belle (Diane Ladd in her final series appearance), who has quit to accept a singing job in Nashville.
