Like Mother, Like Mother

A month after Lila’s memorial, Grace is sorry she wrote The Lost Mother, and she begins the search for Zelda. The book sold well and spent a week on USA Today’s bestseller list. Grace calls Clara for advice, and Clara tells Grace she was lucky to have Lila as a mother. Grace calls the Starbirds next, and they tell her to find Zelda’s death certificate, birth certificate, and marriage license(s). They also tell her to interview Aldo and then take a DNA test. She thanks them, and Stella and Ava decide to help Grace only if she asks. Grace calls Joe, who tells them Frances’s health is failing, and he plans staggered visits to give her something to anticipate. The next day, Grace calls her grandmother, and Frances says she’d like to see Grace get married before she dies. Grace calls the Starbirds to ask for help, and they begin the document search. A few days later, Clara agrees to help with Aldo. Grace and Ruth debrief each other on their love lives, Grace asking why Ruth is stalling her wedding and Ruth telling Grace that Xander loves her. That night, Ruth tells Nico she’s ready to marry him.
