Vicki SUGARS 2004 Fiction color 14min
Something is missing in Betty's married life. Convinced the hair on her top lip is the problem, Betty shaves it off. To her horror though, it grows back thicker than before. When Stan returns home Betty's got some explaining to do, but it seems Stan's got other ideas, as Betty's new look sets one more growth a-sprouting.
