Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Monica (Roma Downey) is now employed at station KQIS as producer for hotshot TV reporter Debra Willis (Vanessa Bell Calloway), who has gained fame with her catchphrase "As my mother always says..." When star high-school athlete Bobby Garcia is seriously injured in a hit-and-run accident, Bobby's mother, impressed by Debra's avowed respect for her own mom, insists that Debra cover the investigation of the accident exclusively. What no one realizes is that Debra actually harbors a deep resentment toward her cold, ultra-perfectionist mother Grace (Diahann Carroll)--and worse, that Debra herself was the driver of the car that knocked Bobby down!
