SOME mothers are a real trial for their offspring.
Before these harridans showed up on Jerry Springer , we had to take Electra's word about moms who ax dads, or Hamlet's about mothers who pop in between incestuous sheets. Toni and Candy Beauchamp live with their father somewhere in the Montrose area. Daddy is a rarely seen American Express traveling rep, while mother Elena has just died of cancer. After her funeral, the girls pop open a vintage bottle she left them, a wine that sends the conservative Toni into several bizarre personality shifts. In one cubbyhole is the Mockingbird, a hand puppet made of a long leather glove with the skins of two mockingbirds sewn to it.
