Mrs. Ted Bliss (2010)
“Ted Bliss FOUR Nothing had been decided. Even during the little visit to Miami Maxine and her brother had undertaken after Manny’s all but incoherent telephone calls and the alarms they set off regarding her state of mind. To Frank’s assertion that the lawyer was probably not only a troublemaker but a shyster into the bargain, his sister said that even if he were she doubted he’d made up Tommy Auveristas’s end of the conversation.
“Meaning?”
“Frank, she’s a housewife. All she knows is ‘Tips fro...m Heloise’ and how you get nasty stains out of the toilet bowl. She’s my mom and I love her, but she doesn’t have the imagination to make up that crap.”

“No. Poor Manny hasn’t a clue, but I think Mother’s in trouble all right.”
“What are you talking about?”
“The guest of honor at Mr. Big’s house party?MoreLess
