Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe set designer at the time, Ted Offenbecker, didn't like the Ricardo's sectional couch set of furniture, so that is what inspired this episode to be written. Also, the writers thought it would be best to give Fred and Ethel some better-looking furniture, so that scenes could take place in the Mertz's apartment more, for a fresh look.
- GoofsLucy tears apart the chair in the Mertzes' living room and feathers fly all over. Later, as Lucy and Ethel sit on the couch in Lucy's apartment, an errant feather floats own to Lucy's left.
- Quotes
Fred Mertz: [Fred and Ethel aren't speaking, Fred blames Lucy, and he is eating alone in the living room as Lucy and Ricky knock on the door] Come in.
Lucy Ricardo: Hello, Fred.
Fred Mertz: [less than enthusiastic] Oh, it's you.
Ricky Ricardo: What's that you're eating?
Fred Mertz: My breakfast.
Ricky Ricardo: A bottle of beer and a salami sandwich?
Fred Mertz: Well, it's the only thing I know how to cook. Ethel has locked herself in the bedroom and won't come out.
Lucy Ricardo: Well, that's why we're here, Fred. I have a plan that'll fix everything.
Fred Mertz: Please. From now on, your channel doesn't come in on my set.
Lucy Ricardo: He'll listen to you, Ricky. You tell him I have a wonderful plan that won't cost him a cent.
Ricky Ricardo: My scatterbrained wife has another half-witted scheme, and if you listen to it, you're out of your mind.
Lucy Ricardo: Boy, did I suffer in that translation!
