  Ethel Mertz : Downtown.

  Lucy Ricardo : [tired of Lucy's bragging, Ricky has forbidden Lucy to mention the mink stole he is buying her]  Guess what! Ricky's giving me a mmmm... Ohhhh, I'm not allowed to say it... Ricky is giving me something. Something that every woman has always wanted from her husband.

  Ethel Mertz : A divorce?

• Ethel Mertz : Fred, Lucy and Ricky'll be here in a minute.

  Fred Mertz : That's good.
