Episode Two "The Girls Want To Go To A Nightclub" First aired OCTOBER 15, 1951

This episode is about Fred and Ethel's 18th wedding anniversary. (Fred and Ethel are Lucy and Ricky's landlords and best friends) The first scene opens where Lucy and Ethel are doing dishes and Ethel brings up the idea to go to a nightclub for her anniversary. While just in the next room Fred has other plans, he wants to go to the fights.

They all finally decided that Fred and Ricky would go to the fights and Lucy and Ethel would go to the nightclub without them, but there was a catch they all would have dates. (Not a very moral start to "I Love Lucy" one of the reasons why this one isn't one of my favorites) DON"T WORRY IF YOU WATCH THIS ONE AND DON'T LIKE IT DON'T STOP WATCHING "I LOVE LUCY" BECAUSE OF THAT IT GETS SO MUCH BETTER AND WHOLESOME!

So Lucy and Ethel dress up and pretend to be the boys' (Ricky and Fred) dates. The guys are fooled for a while, but when the find out that their "dates" are their wives they are a little mad at first, but then in the end they find it all funny.To the girls' dismay the way they end up celebrating the anniversary is going to the fights after all.

Some things that caught my eye......

1. In Lucy's kitchen there are some fringe curtains around her cupboards, but as you will see it is ONLY in that episode. As it is in this pic.

    2.You will find in this episode and in all the other episodes the characters smoking, take note that that was before smoking was banned from television.



Here are some pics of today's episode!
