What happens

The spring dance is coming, and Laura has her eye on a boy. Caroline offers some advice about how a girl might catch a young man's attention, and Laura puts it to work with comic results.

The plan backfires spectacularly. Charles reminds Caroline how their own courtship really went, and she has to rethink what she told her daughter. A sweet, funny look at growing up and first crushes.
