...England." Will she take the baby-faced lad, or will she marry the devoted gentleman with vaults of gold? Sanders gracefully steps aside to allow her to come to her decision, but Tab leans forward again-in Central Park, Staten Island and Grand Central Station-and displays those bald eyeballs. Meekly Sophia once more obeys the scriptwriter. Tab takes possession, like a tot getting behind the wheel of a Thunderbird...
