This is one of those cautionary tales that makes us think outside the box. Mara (played by Patricia Elliot) isn't happy living in a world of Paradise, like she's going through a Mid-Life crisis. And no one, not even Willis (played by Norman Rose), Roland (played by Don Scardino), and Joan Banks (played by Melissande) can't help her escape from her misery. Humans have to realize that HAPPINESS itself, is like MOTIVATION: it comes from within. Nobody can make another person happy. People will change when THEY want to, not when YOU want them to. Plus, Paradise is a state of mind, not a place to visit. This CBSRMT episode kind of reminds me of a TWILIGHT ZONE episode; Season 5 Ep. 17 "Number 12 Looks Just Like You"; where everyone is happy to live longer and be physically attractive except for 1 who refuses to be like everyone else. But anyway, E.G. Marshall's contribution to this was terrific, it gave fans to think about to never mess up a good thing
