April Fools Day

Yes, it's a new gay family series starring Lucille Ball with Richard Dannings as Liz and George Cooper. Two people who live together and like it. As we look in on the Cooper's tonight, George hasn't returned home from work and Liz is in the kitchen talking to Katie, the maid.

Do you know what day is this, Katie? Yes, Mrs. Cooper, it's Friday. Yes, but it's also April Fool's Day, and I just thought I'd warn you that I put an exploding cigarette in that package in the living room.

Well, I warned me. Do you think I snipped cigarettes out of your living room? Oh, I know, Katie. But I noticed it's your smoking and I just didn't mind. I might not make much here, Mrs. Cooper, but I can still buy my own cigarettes.

Stupid petty things like stealing them. I'm sorry, Katie. It's just that you had a cigarette in your mouth and I wanted to be sure you didn't get the exploding one. I accept your apology. What, Mrs. Cooper helped me find my upper place?

One joke gone, Bluey. Well, this trick won't miss. Mmm. What are you doing? Let this cooper kiss in my hand, that trick? Yeah, I want to snare it all up good with lipstick and slip it in Georgia's pocket.

I don't get it. Don't you see? I'll make some excuse and get him to take out his hand, because you're... and then I'll just... get back and let him try to explain the lipstick on it.

Oh, Mr. Cooper, that's an awful thing to do to anybody. Yeah, it's a dirty, sneaky thing to do, and I'm glad I thought of it. The power is on the plans, it's on them. You're going to help.
