Synopsis

Sharon is mortified when her visiting Grampy makes prejudiced remarks to Maria and her new boyfriend Cloud, who's Arab. She assures Maria that Grampy was joking... but Maria knows that he wasn't. How can Sharon defend Grampy unless, deep down, she shares his views? Sharon gets worried. Could she be prejudiced? To prove that she's being fair, Sharon suppresses her dislike for Maria's new boyfriend- even though he doesn't treat Maria well. Eventually, Maria wises up and dumps Cloud, and Sharon comes to terms with her Grampy... the good stuff as well as the bad.
