Two sisters, Henbane and Valerian, use their inheritance from their botanist father to buy into Tailwaters Assisted Living.  They are barely in the door when the Administrator, Leonard Smithwick, advises them that a third sister, Poppy,  has arrived claiming half their inheritance.  If the claim proves to be legitimate there is only enough money for two, not three.  Mr. Smithwick allows Poppy to remain at Tailwaters pending the certification of her claim.  This threesome begins to turn Tailwaters into an armed camp as the occupants take sides and place bets on the outcome.  Luis Cepeda, the activities director tries to keep things on an even keel.  But, all the parties involved are not what or who they seem. Come spend some time with us in Tailwaters  and watch as identities unfold in this mystery/comedy, The Creamed Corn Queen
