Popper has recently passed on, leaving three lovely but unworldly daughters to fend for themselves. What’s worse, Popper had always wanted a son to carry on the family name... and planned for it in a somewhat diabolical way. In his will he stipulated that, ’In the event none of my daughters bears a child within one year from the date of my death, my entire estate will go to the Boston Committee for Planned Parenthood.’ In addition, however, he further stipulated ’that said child will bear its mother’s maiden name.’ Considering that Popper’s estate amounts to a million dollars, the three daughters agree that something has to be done. But having had no experience with men, they have no idea where to start. Enter Stury Delve, a high school coach and part-time ice man. Being a young man of some expertise in such matters (but not wanting to become personally involved in such an unlikely situation), Stury agrees to help them out ’in an advisory capacity.’ Their plans to find a young man to father a child in accordance with Popper’s will turn out to be as hilarious and surprising as the final resolution to the problem. (Contains some mature dialogue that may offend some audiences.)
