Bonnie (nee Jones) Thompson is pregnant and attends a lecture given by a quack doctor named Pilcoff who, as soon as the baby is taken home from the hospital, sends Nurse Cordell, whom Granny Jones is soon calling "curdle-puss", over to take care of the new arrival with the intention of seeing that the baby isn't handled by or exposed to germs by the other members of the massive Jones Clan. This leads to complications.
