Hazel
George Baxter, a highly successful corporation lawyer, is always in control of everything at the office--but almost nothing at home. When he returns from the office at day's end to his wife Dorothy and their young son Harold, he enters the world of Hazel, their housekeeper, who runs their household more efficiently than George runs his office. She's always right, knows exactly what needs doing, and pre-empts his authority with alarming, though justified, regularity.
