Story of Pollyanna, Girl of Love

I Have to Do Something! (1x10)

Air date: Mar 09, 1986

A brief stopover a short distance away from where Harrington-ke is clearly visible becomes the forum for Pollyanna to once again assure Jimmy that her family government is the solution to his housing problem -- a perspective bolstered by Tom who is interested to see if Polly will cooperate with her niece's philanthropic volition the way she did with her big sister as a child. What actually happens next is a syllabus detailing the aggregate character of Beldingsville and its Lady Aides whose population includes Polly Harrington herself . . . they will not recognize that everybody, including themselves, is a diamond in the rough that could benefit from some polishing. After she recovers herself from Pollyanna breaking the news to her, Polly makes it very clear that she will not exert the effort to maintain Jimmy as her ward in spite of having the micro-economy to easily do so complete with a warning that she will discard Pollyanna with the rubbish she brings home at next infraction; while Pollyanna is in anguish over her aunt's hostile reaction, Tom takes a moment to give Jimmy an adhesive bandage. Drawing on her prologue with the Lady Aides in her previous hometown, Pollyanna decides to exhort housing from the Beldingsville Lady Aides upon having it explained that Polly has suddenly decided to sit out the meeting because Jimmy's outburst has ultimately hit very close to home; while this predictably falls flat much to Pollyanna's chagrin, Talim comes racing around the two kids as the emissary of a dangerous opportunity that could crest the housing mountain!!!
