When she appears on the doorstep of wealthy widower Maxwell Sheffield's New York home, cosmetics saleswoman Fran Fine unexpectedly gets a job as the nanny for the Broadway producer's three children, Maggie, Brighton and Grace. Fran brings her no-nonsense honesty, sharp sense of humor and "Queens logic" into the Sheffield household, helping them become a happy, healthy family -- a family that Fran eventually joins when she marries Maxwell. Also in the Sheffield household is sarcastic English butler Niles.

Maxwell is angry when Fran plays matchmaker for Niles and C.C.; the doctor (Rita Rudner) helps prepare Fran and Maxwell for parenthood.

Fran attempts to convince Maxwell that Yetta's old love letters could be made into a Broadway musical.

Maggie and Michael (Nicholle Tom, Andrew Levitas) announce their engagement, which thrills Fran and her mother (Fran Drescher, Renee Taylor).

Fran (Fran Drescher), suffering from intense mood swings, becomes convinced that Maxwell (Charles Shaughnessy) is having an affair. With Lauren Lane.
