If you fail, then my fourth and worst wife, Lola, gets everything. May the best man win. Your Pa, Joe RoarkNeither Freddy Roark nor her pampered, high-strung half-sisters had even been on a horse! And they despised each other almost as much as their Pa, who wanted only sons. An actress, Freddy especially felt her sisters' cold disdain.
