What happens
Archie tries to help his nephew Morton with his schoolwork at Duffy's Tavern, a Mr. Archie-run bar in New York, while Finnegan and the regulars drift in and out with their own schemes. Morton's schoolteacher, Miss Dimwitti, arrives to see where the boy is staying and voices her doubts about the tavern. Archie insists the place is respectable enough and tries to convince her, with the help of a fake professor. This is the 1951 Duffy's Tavern episode, from the OTRR Duffy's Tavern Singles collection, first broadcast on 1951-10-26 on CBS, NBC Blue and NBC, starring Ed Gardner and Shirley Booth, with Charlie Cantor and Florence Halop.

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.
