An Ideal Couple

Kathy and Elliot Lewis on stage. Hey, Lewis. Elliot Lewis. Two of the most distinguished names in radio. Appearing each week in their own theater, starring in a repertory of transprised stories of their own and you're choosing.

Radio's foremost players in radio's foremost plays. Ladies and gentlemen, Elliot Lewis. Good evening. May I present my wife, Kathy. Good evening. We're privileged tonight to introduce to you a new author. The young man is better known as an actor and announcer, but as you will soon hear, he also can write more than his name.

May we present Tom Dixon. Good evening. The play is called An Ideal Couple. And since Tom wrote it, and also has the other gifts, Elliot mentioned, he will play the radio announcer in the story.

So Tom, Kathy, here we go with An Ideal Couple. Oh, this is Johnson. I'll bet you say that to all the boys. I don't know all the boys.

Oh, you are the sweetest talking little lady. We've met in a long, long time. Mr. Johnson, how do you ever hold your own, being married to a woman with such a way with words? It's all right.

All right. Tell me, when is this gift of Gabbamher's most apparent? Well, you know... I'll bet it's twice as powerful when the little darling wants a new hat, at least twice. Let's get on with a more serious aspect of the situation.

Mrs. Johnson, do you know why the Johnson's are on our program? Happy, though married. I think I do. How about you, Mr. Johnson? I'm afraid not. You mean you don't know why you're here? No, no I don't.
