Jolene’s family was just Momma and Grandpa until big, loud Leroy Redfield started taking Momma dancing. Jolene refuses to call him anything but “Mister.” Without a name, he isn’t a real person to her. But then Jolene learns that Mister wants to marry Momma. Is there anything Jolene can do to make him go away?
