Mama's Family Season 3 Episode 9 titled Mama and Dr. Brothers revolves around Mama's visit to the dentist, Dr. Brothers, who she hasn't seen in years. Mama is excited to see him and get her teeth fixed, since she has been experiencing a lot of pain lately.

Before leaving for the dentist, Mama asks Vint to accompany her for support. However, he is too busy with work and cannot join her. As a result, Mama decides to take Iola along with her.

At the dentist's office, Mama is surprised to find out that Dr. Brothers is a very handsome man. She immediately takes a liking to him and starts flirting with him. Dr. Brothers is also interested in Mama and starts flirting back. Meanwhile, Iola is grossed out by the flirting and tries to distract herself by reading a magazine.

Dr. Brothers examines Mama's teeth and discovers that she has a severe infection that needs to be treated immediately. Mama is apprehensive of the procedure and asks Dr. Brothers if there are any other options. He recommends a root canal, but Mama is scared of the pain and decides to leave without getting it done.

On the way back home, Iola tries to persuade Mama to get the root canal done, but Mama is adamant about not going through with it. Meanwhile, Vint arrives home from work and finds out about Mama's dental problems. He is worried about Mama's health and decides to take matters into his own hands by arranging for her to see another dentist.

The next day, Vint takes Mama to the new dentist, who is recommended by his boss. Mama is surprised to find out that the dentist is a woman, Dr. Jenkins. Initially, Mama is hesitant to let a woman perform the root canal, but Dr. Jenkins puts her at ease. She explains the procedure and reassures Mama that it won't be as painful as she thinks.

The root canal is successful, and Mama is grateful to Dr. Jenkins for her expertise. Vint is pleased that Mama's dental problems have been taken care of, and he offers to take her out for a celebratory meal. However, Mama is still smitten with Dr. Brothers and wishes that he had performed the root canal instead of Dr. Jenkins.

The episode ends with Mama receiving a phone call from Dr. Brothers, who is checking up on her dental health. Mama is charmed by his concern and looks forward to seeing him again.

Overall, Mama's Family Season 3 Episode 9 is a lighthearted and humorous episode that showcases Mama's strong-willed personality and her flirtatious nature. It also highlights the importance of proper dental care and the role of medical professionals in ensuring good health.
