Synopsis: 

The paper mill that long propped up the economy of Elliston Falls, Canada has been shut down, sending the town spiraling into an economic depression. When a chipper but overwhelmed tourism officer arrives to lend a hand, she discovers an unlikely business partnership in the three brassy friends that make up the local chapter of Weight Watchers. Could the ladies' plan for a custom underwear business (complete with giant knickers as a roadside attraction) really be the town's salvation? This hilariously irreverent and “revealing” comedy celebrates determination & the entrepreneurial spirit.

Side #1: Barb, Mary, Terri. Pg 9. Begin with BARB: “It really sounded…” and end on pg 10 with BARB: “Well I hope it happens fast.”

Side #2: All Characters. Pg 15. Begin with AMANDA: “Thank you Mayor Henderson.” and end with AMANDA: “Thank you and goodnight.”
