Sisters and Other Strangers

Blanche and her sister, Charmaine, reconcile after a life-long rivalry, until Blanche reads her sister's recently published romance novel and realizes that the heroine is based on her. Dorothy becomes fed up with Stan's visiting cousin from Czechoslovakia, who does nothing but extol the virtues of Communism. (NOTE: The name of this episode is a play on that of the film Lovers and Other Strangers, which starred Bea Arthur.)
