Season 6, Episode 12 - "Ebbtide's Revenge"
Sophia and her son's wife, Angela, haven't gotten along for 26 years. After Phil's funeral service, they finally discuss their differences, and the truth about why Sophia doesn't care for Angela is revealed. What is the reason?
Angela's father's dowry check bounced for $47.
Dorothy: Ma, how would you like to go out to dinner tonight with Angela and me?
Sophia: Nope.
Dorothy: Oh, come on, Ma! This isn't an easy time for any of us.
Angela: Forget it, Dorothy. I don't need her to be there for me. The shame is she wasn't there for Phil. When you wouldn't see me, you weren't seeing him. On the holidays, when he would try to pretend that everything was ok, deep down, it killed him that he wasn't with his family. My children really never got to know their grandmother because you didn't want to step foot inside my house! Well, it wasn't just their loss, Sophia. It was yours, too. So whatever I did, or whatever you think I did, I hope it was worth all the pain!
Sophia: You showed disrespect for our family, and family is sacred where I come from. Phil knew how I felt. You think it was easy for me? I did what I had to do!
Angela: But what did I do?
Sophia: You know very well what you did.
Angela: I swear I don't!
Sophia: Your dowry check bounced.
Angela: What dowry check!?
Sophia: Your father gave us a check for $2 million when we agreed to let you marry Phil.
Blanche: Two million dollars for Phil? Wasn't exactly a buyer's market, was it?
Sophia: Not two million dollars. It was lira. With the exchange rate, it came to about $47, but the check bounced anyway.
Dorothy: That is terrible!
Sophia: I know. I told Sal, get cash!
