What happens
Frankie Remley, a bachelor, is set up on a blind date by Curly and Phil Harris after a neighbor, Mrs. Stewart, is determined to find him a wealthy wife. Frankie wants no part of it, so Curly enlists Julius and then Willie, pretending each is a suitable match for the visiting woman. The plan keeps unraveling as the substitutes cause trouble and the arrangements grow more tangled. The Phil Harris show, a 1952 NBC broadcast, features Phil Harris and Alice Faye as the couple at the center of the household comedy. This is a comedy about mistaken identities and schemes to avoid marriage.

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.
