Alice and her brother Willie are going over her investments. She gets Phil inspired to do some investing on his own. Good idea. Phil shuns advice from Willie, but lets Frankie handle the investment instead. Bad idea. Alice sings, You’re the Cream in My Coffee.
The idea is to invest in something Phil knows something about, but lands on the new technology of television. Phil turns over all his cash to Frankie, and sends him out with full control as to how to invest it. At this time intelevision history, the biggest things on the air were cowboys and wrestlers. Frankie couldn’t afford a cowboy, so he has purchased the rights to the Masked Marauder. Phil now owns the contract for a whole year. Going to the gym to check out their investment, the guys learn their man is actually a lady wrestler. To have the Marauder show her stuff, Frankie is convinced to step into the ring, especially when Alice refuses.
Julius shows to cheer at ringside. With all the comedy done, the guys still have some bad news to learn, but Phil tries to make the best of it.
PS: I particularly liked Frankies name for his agency, the RSFBB, listen to learn what it stands for. Alice also gets in some good reactions to Phil’s senseless investment antics.
