What it's about
Despite admitting that she was scared of him in her never-ending quest to please him, 35-year-old homemaker and mother Alice Hyatt is devastated when her husband Donald is killed in an accident. With few job skills except that as a singer, Alice decides to move herself and her precocious 11-year-old son Tommy from their current home in Socorro, New Mexico to her hometown in Monterey, California, the only place she has ever felt happy. She plans to get singing gigs along the way to earn money to get to Monterey by the end of the summer and the start of Tommy's school year. Alice's quest for a job at each stop often leaves Tommy to fend for himself. His behavior is fostered by Alice, as their relationship is often more as trouble-making friends than mother and son. Alice's plans seldom end up as she envisions, especially as she is forced to take a waitressing job at Mel and Ruby's Diner in Tucson, Arizona, which entails working with a disparate group, including Mel, the establishment's gruff owner/short-order cook, and her fellow waitresses: wisecracking, foul-mouthed Flo and naive, shy Vera. Alice also falls into old habits, namely relying on men to make her feel fulfilled, specifically the much-younger Ben and farmer David. Those relationships may also provide her with a better perspective on her life and her bad choice of Donald as a husband.
