What happens
Phil Harris and Alice Faye argue over Phil's worn easy chair, which Alice wants gone. Their new neighbor, Mrs. Stewart, criticises the chair during a visit, and the argument spreads as Phil and Alice call in friends and decorators to settle the matter. Frank Nelson and Curly Remley take part, and each decorator favours a different outcome. The episode is part of The Phil Harris series, first broadcast on NBC on December 16, 1951, with Phil Harris and Alice Faye in the leading roles, alongside Elliott Lewis and Gale Gordon.

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.
