At home, a young nurse is pressured by relatives to marry Mr. Wesley, a pharmaceutical sales representative who has offered $88,000 and promised to cover Grandma's surgery and the daughter's private school. She refuses, accusing the family of favoring her daughter Joann and rejecting a match with an older man whose three previous wives died. Relatives insist this is her blessing and one threatens 'I'll kill that old hag' if she refuses. She vows to find the money herself but will not marry; someone then urgently asks where Grandma is, leaving the choice and Grandma's fate unresolved.
