All About Alana

Alana Fitzgerald, one of Lois's star pupils, cannot pay her fees at the Juilliard School, so Lois takes her in as a paid household helper. She wins the family round, though Lois suspects an ulterior motive, and Brian's attempt to challenge her comes to nothing. Handed the money early, Alana hires thugs who throw Lois off a cliff, then remodels herself in Lois's image and arranges to marry Peter. Lois survives, interrupts the wedding, and Joe arrests Alana, who admits envy. A prison visit leaves Lois wanting to trade places.
