Road to Avonlea

Strictly Melodrama (5x5)

: 30, 1994

Avonlea is hosting the annual drama competition and Hetty plans to win. She makes a wager with Eleanor McHugh,betting a secret family recipe. Asking Janet to play the lead role, she callously recasts the role when the opportunity arises, giving the part to Isabelle Carrington, famous stage actress. However it turns out that Isabelle's refusal to play the part as originally written (by Hetty of course) forces Hetty to fire her only one day before the competition is set to begin. So Hetty must beg Janet to retake the lead role in time to save the play.
