When Rose makes the mistake of trusting Sophia with a very important task, it’s no surprise it doesn’t go as expected. Instead of opening an investment account, Sophia comes home with a boxer- and we don’t mean of the dog variety. The girls are soon convinced that they’ll make, not just their money back, but a significant profit- so they agree to manage the fighter. Things are all on track until they learn that Kid Pepe is a multi-hyphenate. Will Pepe throw the fight to save his hands and his chance at getting into Juliard? Will the girls get their money back? Will we ever understand how they can sleep in such restrictive sleepwear? All of that and more in today’s episode- Fiddler On The Ropes.
