Francie grows up convinced she’s unattractive. She’s rejected by her crush Ted. Everett, a university professor “who’s made a study of beauty in the American culture,” tells Francie about a homely girl who believed she was beautiful and people treated her that way. Francie has “all the qualities that could make for beauty” but her poor self-image makes her seem plain. Everett puts Francie through a strict makeover regimen. Francie wins the Miss Indiana beauty pageant and now Ted is interested in her, but she discovers she doesn’t want him. Francie and Everett have fallen in love.
