I love Lucy's pantomime as a way to promise Ricky not to gossip but she gossips by letting Ethel figure it out. From start to finish this is an underrated episode it's another girls vs. boys bet. Technically the boys already broke the rules because making up a story is gossip. Ricky argues if the story was true then it's gossip but it wasn't they made it up the wives were gossiping. Well, that's actually not true regardless the story was true or not they were gossiping about a neighbor. But the girls got their revenge so it's all good.
