Liz Develops Inferiority Complex

I'm for my favorite husband starring Lucille Ball. Yes, it's the gay family series starring Lucille Ball with Richard Denning as Liz and George Cooper. Two people who live together and like it. Now let's look in on the coupers. It's evening and they're entertaining George's boss, Mr. Attaberry and his wife Iris. Dinner is over and the group is in the living room.

Oh, Liz, that was an excellent meal. Thank you, Iris. Oh, honey, that's the best dinner we've had in a long time. Yeah, those oysters. I've often eaten a dozen. Seventeen, but who counts? Seventeen. Aren't you ashamed?

Lotus, bud. I was only doing it for you. You are me? Certainly. I was trying to find you a pearl. Oh, sure. As long as you like the oysters, I'm happy. Speaking of oysters, have you heard the latest story that's making them around?

No. What is it? Well, it seems there was a deep-sea diver and a mermaid. And one day... Rudolph! Yeah? Is this a story for mixed company? Of course not. It seems there was this deep sea.

And this murder... Rudeau. Iris, this company is a mix that's married. Well, it doesn't sound like the kind of story you should tell when there are ladies present. It isn't. It seems... There is a mermaid.

Rudeau. Well, I won't tell it. Oh, darn. Oh, don't look so unhappy, George. I know a joke to tell. You do? Yes, and it's fit for Nick's company, too. Well, tell it anyway. Oh, I'm not very good at telling stories.

You can say that again. I'll just try to get it straight. Well, you're a big help. Well, every morning, Liz, go ahead. Well, it seems this woman went into a restaurant. No. No. Wait a minute.
