What happens
George Burns is unhappy when a muscular new neighbor, Gordon Cates, moves in next door, and the two men quickly begin to quarrel over lemons and a bicycle. Gracie Allen, George's wife, looks for a way to get rid of the troublesome neighbor and seeks advice from the man who rented the house, Mr. Perkins. The episode is part of the Burns and Allen series, originally broadcast on March 5, 1945, and the cast includes Gracie Allen, Bea Benaderet, Meredith Willson and Mel Blanc. Gracie's plan involves a visit to the countryside and a pig.

Written from the episode itself; it never gives away the ending. Every recording is remastered for the stream: cleaned of rumble, hiss and mains hum (and the old TV whine where we found it), then levelled in two passes to steady broadcast loudness, so one show is never quieter than the next.
