- Ricky is on vacation from work and is always in Lucy's way. Lucy & Ethel decide to start building a BBQ in order to trick Ricky & Fred into taking over a man's job. Unfortunately, Lucy loses her wedding ring during the process.
- Ricky and Fred build a new outdoor Bar-B-Q. Lucy and Ethel are charged with mixing the mortar and Lucy takes her wedding ring off so that it does not get damaged. Ricky sees her wedding ring and puts it in his shirt pocket so that it does not get lost. After Ricky and Fred complete building the Bar-B-Q, Lucy realizes she has has forgotten her wedding ring but it is no longer where she put it. Thinking that it must have falled into the mortar when she was mixing it and fearing Ricky's anger, she solicits Ethel's help to take the Bar-B-Q apart brick by brick while the guys sleep that evening in search of the ring. The ring is not found so Lucy and Ethel 'reconstruct' the Bar-B-Q looking more like the Leaning Tower of Pisa. Ricky and Fred go crazy at the sight. Ricky explains he had picked up the ring and put it in his shirt pocket but the shirt ultimately has been torn up and used by Fred when building the tail of a kite for Little Ricky. The ring is lost until dinner time when Lucy bites into her hamburger off the rebuilt Bar-B-Q. There is the ring. Ricky figures out that the ring must have fallen out of his shirt pocket into the meat when he was mixing the meat.
