Sunday matinee is at 2:30 p.m. Leonard Loftus is trying to get his books published, but Harriet keeps sending his manuscripts back because they are the work of a man. When Leonard finally sends a manuscript based on his experience as a single parent, and uses the female pseudonym "Lulabelle Latifa," Harriet is impressed Leonard is forced to carry the pretense that "Lulabelle" exists by dressing up as a woman and pretending that he is his own fictitious aunt.
