Spoilers ahead

Pediatrician Jane Bowers, Barbara Eden, is a women’s lib advocate who meets Officer Jerry Frazer David Hartman when they both show up to view an apartment in San Francisco. They immediately butt heads as her militant demand for equal treatment clashes with his traditional “ladies first” attitude. Due to the shortage of affordable housing and a landlord’s misunderstanding, they decide to pose as a married couple to share the apartment since their work schedules don’t overlap, an arrangement she openly shares with Wyatt Foley Herb Edelman, her understanding, liberal lawyer fiancé and Mother’s boy, though she doesn’t tell her father.
