Summary

What should you do if your daughter just wants to have fun-- hanging out at her wealthy boyfriend's house instead of yours? Music icon Cyndi Lauper and Tig answer that, plus give advice to a woman who lost her mother's diamond decades ago and wonders if she should confess now. Cyndi also admits she sometimes pretends she's someone else when spotted by a fan in public, and Tig tries to help Cyndi figure out which celebrities are in her cell phone under coded initials.
