Hyacinth busies herself performing selfless acts of charity for the lower classes (including her sisters), doling out invaluable advice to her husband Richard, and acting the adoring eldest daughter to her incapacitated Daddy, yet still she finds the time to keep her neighbors on edge by hosting insufferable morning coffees and candlelight suppers.; ; 'A Strange Man'; Hyacinth is appalled when she sees a strange man next door at Elizabeth's who has obviously spent the night there! What will such risqué behavior do to the property values?; ; 'Driving Mrs. Fortescue'; Hyacinth is positively thrilled when the wealthy Mrs. Fortescue asks them for a lift into town. After all, she is practically aristocracy! But a few bumps along the way could bring Hyacinth's social aspirations to a crashing halt.; ; 'Candlelight Supper'; Hyacinth plans to hold one of her celebrated candlelight suppers in order to impress Emmet, head of the local amateur operatic society, with her vocal talents.; ; 'Golfing With the Major'; Hyacinth has decided that she and husband Richard should have a weekend of golfing so that they can keep up with the Major. Her plans are thrown into disarray by the scandalous behavior of one of the hotel guests...her sister!; ; 'The Googley-Eyed Registrar'; Hyacinth fears that the tumultuous lives of her family members will cast a pall on the carefully polished image she tries so hard to maintain. A chance run-in with the imposing Registrar puts Hyacinth in her place.
