Question: What do Amy, the new mom; Meriel, the
West-Indian housekeeper; Claude and Naomi, the
alternative couple; Faith, the elegant widow; and
Talia, the super-skinny ballerina have in common?
Answer: Abso-freakin'-lutely-nothing!
Except that they all live lives of not-so-quiet
desperation on the Upper West Side of New York City. What
gets them through? Their unusual therapy sessions with
supershrink Susan Lederer, held in the depths of the laundry
room. Susan knows that all of life's problems eventually
come out in the wash, but while the washers keep breaking
down, she helps her female friends take control.
But Susan's life has become an agitated mess. Her teenage
daughter seems destined for a fast-food future; her son's
adolescence hasn't quite hit yet . . . and her perfect
husband is hiding something. Susan could use a really good
shrink. Instead, her dirty linen exposed, she finds
that it's her friends who rally 'round her, and by the final
spin, she realizes that while it might not take a whole
village, it does sometimes take a laundry room to get rid of
the nastier wrinkles in life.
Now if only she could find the formula for getting rid of
that ring around the collar.
