HELP WANTEDWendy has been a successful designer of woman's lingerie for the last twelve years. Some would say her products were too provocative and sensuous, but they always have sold in record numbers.Gerald, her reasonable boss for seven, then a possessive and controlling business partner for the last five years, has always gone along with her new designs.Now wanting to work on another updated catalogue, Wendy tells him this time she needs the peace and quiet of her old run down homestead in order to concentrate on these newest designs.Gerald, now becoming paranoid and suspicious that Wendy may branch out on her own, and choosing to be away from the company to create these new designs, has inflamed his suspicions even more.RESTORING REGRETSHarold and his wife had been running a successful antique furniture restoration business for several decades in mid-west America, and life was pretty good until his wife got killed from a senseless drive by shooting right out side their shop.Never getting over the shock and with his health deteriorating, Harold gratefully accepts his son's help.Bob has now been helping his Dad for six years. Pushing forty and never married, he is drastically getting behind with the work as his Dad is working even less. He decides to advertise for an assistant or trainee.After several applicants fail to impress, a mother brings her eighteen year old son to apply. By all accounts, he is just the lad Bob has been looking for...except for one drawback.
