Sharon & Bella solve RAISING THE CURTAIN.
We raise our curtain for...
Sharon Wolters & Bella (grandmother/granddaughter): Sharon is from Portis, KS; she's been married for 45 years to "the same great guy" Clark. Bella is the middle granddaughter, a Grade 12 student ready to graduate. They can read each others minds.
Retta Alexander & Julian Hernandez (grandmother/grandson): Retta is from Pascagoula, MS; she's the mother of three daughters (one retiring from the military after 20 years), and she has two grandsons. Julian is from Phoenix, AZ; one of the grandsons, he is ready to graduate and planning to either go to university or trade school for jewelry/hardware. They like to cook and watch TV together, especially when Wheel is on, and they phone each other to see who solved the puzzle first.
Johnny & Sarah Bowles (grandfather/granddaughter): Johnny is from Chesnee, SC; his wife just celebrated their 47th wedding anniversary; he's retired from the Air Force after 21 years, and he recently retired from federal service, now making him "a full-time slacker". Sarah is from Birmingham, AL; she's a Grade 10 student in a marching band and plays the euphonium (a miniature tuba). They like to fish and play cards.

In the final segment, Pat talks about how one of his grandmothers was a woman ahead of her time! She worked for the old Chicago Newspaper, she worked in the sports pages, she wore a Lone Ranger mask, her byline was "The Lady in the Mask", and she was a horse-racing handicapper! That was unusual for a woman back then, and that's how Pat got...something.
