Transcript

Fiver McGee and Molly. Fiver McGee and Molly. With Bill Thompson, Gail Gordon, Arthur Cubrian, Dick LaGrand, and me, Harlow Wilcox. The show opens with My Minds on You. If you were listening last week, you'll know that our friends got themselves into a spot where everybody in town thought they were broke.

Even if you weren't listening, that's what happened. And so in order to correct that impression, a lovely buffet supper will be held tonight for a number of lovely people at 79 Westville Vista, the lovely home of that lovely couple, Fiverr McGhee and Molly.

McGhee, look at that buffet lunch I fixed up. Isn't it beautiful? You boy, I'll say it is. It's lovely. Looks good enough to eat. It is to eat. Huh? Oh, boy, yes, of course. Hey, where'd you ever get those grapefruit?

I never saw any like that there before. Like what? With them little weenies growing out of them. What? What'll them horticulturists think of next? Those are cocktail sausages. Nice. Tuck them in there with toothpicks.

Oh. Does everything look all right? Oh, wonderful. As the wife says, when she aimed to kick at her husband under the bridge table, this is going to be some chin dig. They will show everybody in town that the McGee's aren't broke or in need of anything.

You betcha. Did you tell Mr. Gilder sleep to bring over a dozen folding chairs? Yes. Mrs. Upton is going to borrow us the loan of her big punch bowl. Oh, well I've asked Mr. Wilcox to bring some of his phonograph records.

What's the matter with the ones we got? Did you ever try to rumble the telephone? And another thing, how about extra playing cards? Eratio K. Boomers bringing them. Well, I guess we're all set then.
