The entries of the I Hate Jack Benny Because… contest have been pouring in. Join Jack and Mary as they read a few of the entries.

Larry Stevens sings, Lillie Belle.
In the Ronald Coleman household, we learn how he feels about his neighbor. We also learn the dinner invitation was a mistake, but Ronald is too kindhearted to turn Jack away. Enjoy the fun as Jack shows off his socially inept side.
