Bess, Is You a Woman Now?

Phyllis Lindstrom's "motherhood" is struck to the heart when she believes that her daughter's skiing outing has resulted in her becoming a "fallen woman. Phyllis, worried about her teenage daughter being all alone in the mountains, is encouraged to put in a call to make certain that everything is well. When a man answers the phone in Bess' room at the lodge, Phyllis thinks the worst. She nervously confides her fears to her boss, Julie Erskine, who advises her to have it out with, Bess as soon
as she returns home. However, Phyllis can't bring herself to bring up the subject once Bess returns, accompanied by the "man" in question.
