WTVJ's Al Sunshine takes a break from hard news to report on Mother's Day in this 1980 story, and he starts with solid info about card sales and flower sales. Then, all of a sudden, he's in Mike Wallace "Gotcha" territory.

"What would happen if you were to forget to send flowers on Mother's Day?" he asks several unsuspecting Mom's Day shoppers. The answers are emotional and affecting -- with a wisecrack or two thrown in.
