"Dunk the Dame" Is the Only Decent Part
kgraovac28 December 2023
Lucy and Kim employ various tricks to try and get Harry to give Lucy a raise.

Just like Lucy's quest for money, these scripts are getting more and more desperate and repetitive. The episode feels like a bunch of unrelated skits strung together to make a full show.

Kim is seen as a clumsy waitress; Lucy shows up in a carnival dunk tank dressed like a showgirl; Lucy and Kim pretend to make counterfeit money. Gary Morton plays the carnival barker and the "dunk the dame" bit is the only original thing about the episode.

Harry ends up wearing his food in the restaurant scene, and at the end he is soaked by the water cooler and hosed by fire extinguishers -- gags that are beyond tired at this point.

Kim does a Flip Wilson imitation.
