When Maude takes on the medical profession, the battle is destined to be one-sided -- in other words, the medical profession doesn't have a chance of winning. Maude and Walter are within hours of leaving for a second honeymoon in Italy when Maude develops a rash. Arthur suggests it is a reaction to a tetanus shot but sends her to a Dr. Tasko for confirmation of the diagnosis. The new doctor's treatment stops the rash but marks the beginning of a malpractice suit.

Maude arranges a dinner for her recently widowed school chum, Jane, and without informing her, also invites Jane's estranged daughter, Linda. But Maude learns that her personal charm -- and considerable combat experience -- is not enough to make everyone live happily ever after.
