About Mr. Rogers[]
When Willona accepts a house detective position offered by Mr. Rogers, the head of the Security Department at the department store where she works as a boutique section clerk (the store is presumably a Marshall Field's store) which she applied for, part of her job requires her to constantly spy on her to make sure Willona is doing her job watching, through a hidden two-way mirror which connects to video cameras installed in the dressing room stalls of the store, for possible shoplifters, which means, she also has to contend with Miss Johnson, her immediate supervisor, who, as part of her job, has to constantly snoop on Willona the same way, through a similar camera installed in the security camera video room, assuring that she is doing her job!
Just as Willona is about to quit the job, Mr. Rogers comes into the security video room to talk to Miss Johnson, as it turns out that the department store has a problem with trust issues, as Miss Johnson was also being "watched" by Mr. Rogers, who was figuring it was why as he says "we couldn't keep any people in security anymore!"; it turns out that he himself was being watched by his boss, the VP of Personnel in the store, who wanted them all to come to his office!
