Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaWhen Lucy questions who the flowers are from, she asks, "Fred who?", to which Ethel replies, "You know Fred who!" Lucy says, "Oh, now, Ethel. You certainly don't think these are from Fred Mertz, do you?" Ethel replies, "Well this card certainly wasn't written by Fred MacMurray!". William Frawley (Fred Mertz) and Fred MacMurray later appeared in 165 episodes of My Three Sons (1960) together, from 1960-1965.
- GoofsAt the florist's, Fred orders roses to be sent to Lucy in Ricky's name and adds some gladiolas to the order. The box is packed and taken to the driver (off screen). However, when the scene shows the box in the apartment it is wrapped with a bow that it didn't leave the store with and there are no gladiolas in the box.
- Quotes
Fred Mertz: [as Fred is coming in the Ricardos' front door, Ethel opens the kitchen door and it hits him] She slammed the door on my nose.
Ethel Mertz: I did not. He walked right into it.
Ricky Ricardo: Does it hurt much, Fred?
Fred Mertz: I wouldn't be surprised if it's broken. I may never smell again.
Ethel Mertz: Wanna bet?

Featured review
Black eyes
As a kid, I used to laugh at this and as an adult I still find it innocent. People have issues today only because there's humor involving black eyes and somehow are led to believe violence is funny. The show is not making fun of violence it's misunderstandings that's all. All four end up with black eyes. Remember it's a TV show no one was harmed during the making. Plus, it's not touching on abusive relationships as some might expect it would, no. Ricky never hit Lucy. Calm down.
