Mama Harper has lost Vint's most prized possession and best friend, his bowling ball. Anyway Ellen has come over to borrow a family heirloom to wear for her big night at the country club where she has been elected woman of the year. When Mama informs Vint and Naomi that they were invited for the evening, they decide to attend. Mama couldn't be any more humiliating or embarrassing regarding her eldest daughter. She dances with Mayor Tutwiller, drinks beer to Ellen's disgust, and complains that her prime rib was too rare. In the mean-time, Mama is invited to speak a few words and ends up as the Mama Rickles of Raytown with her humor and frankness. Of course, the most fun is watching Ellen be so embarrassed by her family that night.
