Jack Benny – Jack Sees ADoctor. 541107

Flashback to the day before in the drugstore. As Jack reads the paper, he is harrassed by the waitress, and tries to jot down a joke for the show. When Bob Crosby arrives, Jack finally orders from her. Mary comes in to joke with Bob about Jack being so stingy.

When Don brings the Sportsmen to sing their commercial at the lunch counter. This time it’s the waitress that gets driven nuts instead of Jack. As Jack walks home, he overhears Dennis shouting angry words from a phone booth. The whole gang make it to the studio where Dennis sings, Hey Brother Pour the Wine.

Meanwhile, Rochester has driven Jack and Mary to Jack’s doctor appointment. Hey, this interview with the nurse sounds eerily similar to one that is featured in the 1948 episode on this same day. Mel Blanc even makes an appearance in the waiting room as Bugs Bunny.

Jack also talks with a man with a big family. Finally, comes the visit with Dr Frank Nelson. Jack just needs a vitamin shot, which turns into a shot of a different kind.
