Little House on the Prairie - S07E12 - Oleson Versus Oleson

Synopsis de l'épisode

A town referendum comes up on giving fair property rights to married women. Mrs. Olesen is strongly in favor of the issue, and rallies all of the town's women (including Caroline and Laura) to her cause. Nels, Charles and Almonzo favor the referendum in principle but won't go on record as being in favor of it; each has their own reasons. Percy is apparently the only man in town to favor the issue â?? and it's only to keep Nellie happy. For once, Mrs. Olesen uses her shrewd stubborn demeanor for good. She gets all of the men's wives to leave them (temporarily, of course) until the husbands see the errors in their thinking. The issue doesn't come to vote, but the men gain an appreciation for their better halves and see the need for equal property rights.
