What happens

The series is Duffy's Tavern, and this episode originally aired on November 16, 1945. Ed Gardner and Shirley Booth lead the cast, with Charlie Cantor and Florence Halop also appearing.

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.
