After more than a week of funky hair, corsets that restrict their
breathing, relentless cleaning, and laundry days so long and arduous
that the girls must stay home from school to help out, the Bowler
women are driven to the brink. They furtively purchase 1999 shampoo,
but their delight is later colored by guilt, and a brave decision
to relinquish the cherished suds is made. Joyce decides to hire
Elizabeth, a third-generation maid-of-all-work, whose prodigious
cleaning and laundry services leave Joyce with "only" the cooking
duties -- and enough free time to prepare a special dinner party
for series consultant Daru Rooke. Meanwhile, Paul struggles with
his role as "Master of the House," Kathryn finds it harder and harder
to be a teenager in 1900, and Hilary and Ruth create an elaborate
theatrical production for the party.
