Raymond's plans are to market Daisy as the wholesome "Valentine", complete with a back story to match that persona, that story which may not be completely true. Daisy's mother does not fit into that story. With the help of Daisy's social climbing older sister Gloria Goslett, Raymond arranges for Mrs. Clover to be committed, Daisy not to see her, as to the movie going public, her mother died the previous year.
