Archie, the manager of Duffy's Tavern, asks Duffy for a five dollar raise so he can support his new sweetheart, Dolly Snafel, and is granted it. Archie's friend Finnegan worries that marriage will end their friendship, while Dolly is quick to flirt with the customers. Archie then hires an opera singer, Wendy Kim, after Dolly asks him to, and he sets out to get rid of the singer by having Duffy turn him away. The episode is from the Duffy's Tavern series, aired on May 18, 1945, with Ed Gardner, Shirley Booth, Charlie Cantor and Florence Halop in the leading roles.

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.
