227 (1985)

Episode Overview

Sandra takes on a new job as a meter maid. While heading to the bank with the dues from Mary and Rose, Pearl has her purse stolen. In response, Sandra and Mary come up with a plan to set up a stake-out in the park, with Rose and Mary disguising themselves as elderly women. Their suspicions grow when a skater repeatedly passes by, leading them to believe he might be the thief. An older man eventually joins Mary and Rose on the bench, and he quickly grabs their purses. The skater, who is actually an undercover cop, tries to apprehend him, but when Sandra jumps in to help, she mistakenly handcuffs the skater instead, allowing the mugger to escape. Back at home, Pearl discovers that the dues money was not in her purse but hidden inside another bra.
