An incident in a park with an ice cream van, a handsome jogger, a teacher and a class of six-year-old children is enough to drive anyone up the wall...
When Miranda and Penny end up in the police station, Penny leads the police to believe that Miranda is a bit unstable and they are both forced to see a therapist for an assessment. All they need to do is sit quietly and control their temper with each other - but this is Miranda and her mother, after all. Will the unnervingly silent therapist believe the constantly scrapping pair are just as sane as any other bickering mother and daughter?
