What happens
Archie, the manager of Duffy's Tavern, grows frustrated with his long working hours and little hope of getting rich. His friend Slippery Maguire persuades him that no one has ever patented electricity, and Archie decides to claim it. Archie forms a company and sells stock to raise money, including to his friend Joe Moran, while the tavern's electricity is repeatedly cut off over unpaid bills. Duffy's Tavern is a comedy series, with its episode aired on February 23, 1949, on CBS, NBC Blue and NBC. Ed Gardner, Shirley Booth, Charlie Cantor and Florence Halop are the lead actors.

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.
