In Queens she presides over a household comprised of a childish orphan who happens to be a cop an elderly gentleman who explodes every time somebody calls him "Grandpa " a dying husband and an errant daughter who cries all night. The husband Baba's fifth is already submitting an ad for her sixth. The cop catches a Japanese man stealing cameras and chains him to a radiator the daughter guiltily confesses she voted for Nixon and runs off and the husband who may not die after all insists they must wait out Watergate for a Democratic president.
