Four mature women live together in Miami and experience the joys and angst of their golden years; strong-willed Dorothy, spacey Rose, lusty Southern belle Blanche and matriarch Sophia, Dorothy's mom, occasionally clash but are there for one another in the end; after all, when the show's theme song is titled "Thank You for Being a Friend," the ladies have to remain friendly with one another.

Rose thinks her visiting sister is trying to steal her friends.

Sophia and Rose help a friend escape from an inadequate nursing home.

Flashbacks recall previous attempts by the roommates to lose weight.

Sophia learns that the hospital may have switched Dorothy at birth with another baby.
