After her father tossed her on the street, Anna Lucasta, played by Eartha Kitt, does her level best to survive a waterfront hellscape. When her family attempts a reunion to marry her off to a greenhorn with a fortune, Anna struggles with society's expectations and her own dream for love. I close the episode with an excerpt from Kitt's memoir 'Confessions of a Sex Kitten,' where she recalls first meeting co-star Sammy Davis Jr.
