Berle refuses to sign a contract for next season, so the Texaco rep (Albertson) threatens to replace him with Amsterdam or Youngman. Collins sings "Treat Me Rough."

The thugs let Berle go and decide to kidnap Carter instead; they foul up and nab Milton again.

Milton Berle welcomes guests including Frank Sinatra and Eva Gabor, with Jimmy Nelson, Bobby Sherwood and Ruth Gilbert. Sinatra sings performs "Birth of the Blues" with Sherwood on trumpet. Berle, Sinatra, and Gabor toss around ideas for TV shows. "I Hate Miltie" has Berle and Gabor as a zany couple trying to fix a large turkey because people keep inviting themselves for Thanksgiving; Gilbert and Sinatra are the neighbors. In "What's My Racket?", panelists have trouble guessing the obvious occupations of the contestants. "Kukla, Friend, and Ollie" casts Gabor, Sinatra, and Berle in the kiddie program.
