Their relationship is going very slowly as Ronnie has never been married and seems to be a confirmed bachelor as he has lived on his own for virtually all his life. So when Kate runs into Ronnie, she tries to encourage him to take his relationship with Vera a little more seriously and a little more quickly. To help him along, she allows Ronnie to stay at the hotel to see how happy real family life really is. Two problems arise. First, there is currently less than harmony at the hotel among the feuding sisters. And second, Ronnie's stay at the hotel is misconstrued by others, who think Ronnie and Kate are sweet on each other. Those others include Uncle Joe, who believes Ronnie is a fortune hunter after the family's money. Written by Huggo See less
