What happens
Phil Harris and Alice Faye plan their summer vacation while spring cleaning at home. Phil wants to go to Paris, Alice prefers Hawaii, and their neighbor Frankie Remley, who has been told by his doctor to stop drinking and smoking, invites himself along. The couple try a series of ideas, including a boat, an educational trip and a motor tour, and Frankie's schemes to join them grow more elaborate. The episode is from The Phil Harris and Alice Faye Show, broadcast by NBC on May 6, 1951, with Phil Harris and Alice Faye starring.
A suburban home during spring cleaning, with a travel-planning argument that moves to a used car lot and a backyard where a trailer is being built.
Characters: Phil Harris, Alice Faye, Frankie Remley, Curly, Phyllis, Judy, Julius, Grogan
Listen for: Frankie's attempts to join the vacation and the trailer that the friends build for the trip.
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.
