[edit] Synopsis
At a PTA meeting, Maxwell nominates Fran to direct Grace's school play, but after seeing what she is doing he promotes her to producer and instates himself as the director. On the opening night, Grace suffers from severe stage fright and refuses to go on stage. However, Fran tells Grace that they will then have to give the part to Grace's rival, Andrea. Refusing to let Andrea steal her spotlight, Grace goes on stage and seems to be a big hit with the crowd. But later Maxwell reads a review that labels the play "over-produced" and "under-directed" and he realizes that Fran would have been a better director.
