Episode: �Miracle Worker� � Written by Robert Hickey & Nancy Hower & John Lehr; Directed by Nancy Hower

Greens & Grains� sales are down, and manager Leslie Pool (John Lehr) needs to find a way to attract new customers. When a water stain on the wall near the entrance to the store appears to be the likeness of Jesus, Leslie sees nothing but dollar signs. But his overeager marketing tactics attract the ire of rival store manager Amy (Jennifer Elise Cox), while Ingrid (Kirsten Gronfeld) goes a little too far with her own promotional idea. Carl (Robert Clendenin) makes overtures to be a proper father to his son with Yolanda (Roberta Valderrama). And the meat freezer is on the fritz, threatening the store�s entire meat supply.
