Valentine's Day is supposed to be the most romantic night of the year thanks to Hallmark and other stores. In this episode, Iola claims that she has a date rather than explain to Naomi that she doesn't have a date on the most romantic night of the year. So Iola lies to protect herself. While Thelma also admits that she has a date rather than let her best friend stay with her and watch old movies on television as they usually do on St. Valentine's Day. Mama even goes so far as hiring from some escort service and is shocked by Mel who is more of a dancer and stripper than escort. Anyway, Mama and Iola have convinced the others that they have dates of their own anyway.
