When a big-time racketeer mistakes Lucy for "Dirty Gertie" -- a beggar woman who brings him good luck in betting -- a cop asks Lucy to take part in a sting operation to put the criminal behind bars
An okay episode, but kind of derivative. The drunk bit is trotted out once again. Lucy's "Gertie" is kind of similar to when Lucy played the slovenly woman in the I LOVE LUCY episode with Aunt Martha's Salad Dressing. Never one of my favorite Lucy characterizations.
Bruce Gordon returns to play another "heavy" but this one isn't as good as the LUCY SHOW episode he did in Season 4 "Lucy the Gun Moll".
