What happens
Jack Benny prepares to go out on New Year's Eve, first losing a cufflink and then hunting for a missing item while his staff and family wait for him. Rochester, Mary Livingstone and Dennis Day head out to the Biltmore Bowl, where Jack and his friends settle in for an evening of drinks, music and noisemakers. Phil Harris and Don Wilson join the crowd, and Jack is called up to play the violin. The episode is part of the Jell-O program, with Jack Benny starring alongside Mary Livingstone, Eddie Anderson and Phil Harris, and it aired on January 4, 1942.

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.
