There is one place in town doing business; Dr. Detmold's Sanatorium for the Socially Pressured. Locally known as the Cookie Jar.

I'm like the bluebird.
I should worry, I should care.
I should be a millionaire.
I'm like the bluebird...

NARRATOR:
The Mayoress is so depressed by her unpopularity that she makes a nostalgic pilgrimage to a huge rock on the outskirts of town.

CORA:
I am in the depths of positive despair.

SCHUB:
Ah now, Cora, you need to relax.

CORA:
I need a miracle, that's what I need.

NARRATOR:
Suddenly, Baby Joan licks the rock and there is an enormous spurt of water.

CORA:
Schroeder - Schroeder!

MRS. SCHROEDER:
Your honor, it's a miracle!

CORA:
It's what?

MRS. SCHROEDER:
A miracle! It's a miracle!

CORA:
You know, you're absolutely right. It is a miracle. I'm saved.
