1946Nelson sings "My Wonder One" on his radio show...and fans wonder! The local fans in particular have observed the strained interaction between Nelson and his wife Ann during the few times she shows up at one of his radio shows. They are certain that the sensual, love-sick lyrics are for someone other than Ann Eddy...but could it be true that he still holds a torch for...Jeanette? Those who have observed Nelson's attentiveness, excitement - and wandering hands - when Jeanette is his guest star are afraid to believe it. The underlying tragedy of Nelson Eddy trapped in a loveless marriage is more than they can think with.
