The Ellen Show
2001Seasons & Episode
An Internet entrepreneur returns to live in her hometown after her new business venture suddenly collapses.
The Antiques Roadshow is coming to Clark and everybody brings something they think might be valuable for the Englishman to check out. After a lot of junk, Ellen discovers that the Monopoly her sister Mary gave her years ago that had never been opened is worth thousands of dollars - enough for Ellen to move out, since Ellen feels she's intruding Catherine and Dot's space.
In order to boost Catherine's self-esteem, Ellen encourages her to accompany her to a seminar by popular motivational speaker, Percy Moss. Catherine and Ellen attend the session on self-actualization, where they both learn how to ""see it, want it and take it."" But after the seminar, they leave with vastly different opinions of Moss. Ellen sees him as a scam artist, only interested in sucking as much money from his followers as possible, while Catherine believes that he might just be the person capable of turning her life around.
