When Dad dies, his kids discover a string of messages on the answering machine from a mystery woman. Her steamy mention of  “snickerdoodles” has both of them blushing, but as the tone of the messages turns from sultry to anxious, the two follow the crumbs to a surprising conclusion and a truth they never saw coming.

The playwright writes, “The surprise ending mirrors one I’ve encountered in my own life. These kinds of revelations change your perspectives of people while making you question your assumptions.”
