A week after that Peter got a HUGE bonus (read: boner) after firing four women for taking more than three days of maternity leave. Hey, take an epidural, slap on a pantsuit, and get back in there.

But once a month she gets up on the bandstand of the Gardenia restaurant in Hollywood and sings a very ungrandmotherly set of songs. The effect is equal parts surprise, delight and blushes.
