Amazing episode!

Warning: Spoilers
This one is different. None of the usual plots. There is a female burglar on the loose in the neighborhood . Lucy and Ethel through some confusing situations thinks they other is the infamous Madam X as she has been coined. They are all pretty much in character but Lucy and Ethel in particular are doing things they wouldn't normally do setting each other up to find out the truth , spying and for a change not confiding in each other. They instead collaborate with their husbands. Ricky and Fred have strong reservations that their wives are right. They still provide their wives with help and a little sanity! The end has Fred running in the opposite direction of Madame X , Lucy confronting who she thinks is Ethel and Ricky catching the burglar as he comes home. Interesting both Fred and Ricky are braver when they think Madame X is Ethel and Lucy! When they realize it isn't they panic! It's hilarious! Lucy and Ethel realize they were wrong about each other and actually are still good with one another. I think they were both relieved to be wrong.
