However, the world around them is changing & life will never be the same again. Mike & Ruth Sloan have lost their son Mike Jr. in the war, but gained an Italian daughter-in-law, Gina who's pregnant. Gina is hiding the fact that she is Jewish & a survivor of the Holocaust. Abe & Gloria Davis, who work for the Sloan's, are hopeful that life will be better for African Americans now that so many Black veterans have distinguished themselves in the service. But their son Robert, A military hero, is embittered by the treatment he received in the army, does not think things will ever be any better. Everything appears to be rosy for Hank Metcalf though, as he is coming home to marry his sweetheart Sarah. Unbeknownst to him however is that Sarah is in love with someone else: His younger brother Jeff. Hank's sister Linda is angered that while women were treated as equals at work during the war, are now expected to take a backseat to the returning G.I.s, giving up the jobs they took to keep the country running so that the boys will not have any trouble getting work. The matriarch of the Metcalf family is the widowed Anne, who believes in old fashion values & tries to keep her children on the straight & narrow.
