Lucky

After John takes baby Lucky, Margaret Jean is confirmed as a nun. The final test was keeping watch the night that Lucky was left on the church steps. She never told the other nuns about the baby. The baby’s mother, Valerie Mann, comes back to the church looking for her. Margaret Jean buys her breakfast in a diner and learns her name. Then, Margaret Jean claims that she had a vision of the baby being taken in by a good family. Valerie, a teenager, admits to living in a shelter.
