Show Description: Retired burlesque queen Beatrice Shelton desperately needs a vacation - and NOT another trip up to Helen, Georgia to see that "precious little German village for the umpteenth time." A Sassy Seniors cruise through the Caribbean may be just the ticket if she can convince her best friend, Eaddy Mae Clayton to stop praying and go with her. Unfortunately, things have not been very pleasant at Magnolia Place Assisted Living since Nurse Pat Jones began working there. A mystery unfolds as the gals try to outsmart the evil Nurse Jones and figure out why so many residents have been moved to "the dark side", what exactly IS that mysterious pill, and what happened to Doctor Head? Hilarity ensues as Imogene goes undercover, and Maude enters the Miss Magnolia Senior Citizen Pageant to throw Pat off their trail. If they can solve the mystery, they may make it to the cruise ship after all.
