Fibber McGee and Molly – Fibber Buys a Horse. ep315, 420224

Audio is a touch staticky, but good.

To deal with rubber shortages, and tires with too much wear and tear, Fibber thinks they ought to get a horse. It will save on gas and oil. The Old Timer stops in with the load of hay Fibber already ordered. The old gent tells about his girlfriend before leaving. Molly still doesn’t know that the horse has already been bought, and doesn’t think he knows how to take care of horses. However, Horse Neck McGee takes off to brag about his animal instinct. Billy Mills plays, Blue Skies.

When Molly claims she already promised Abigail Uppington the use of the garage, Fibber has to scramble in trying to let Molly in on the horse. When Abigail visits the horse jokes build with Fibber telling about his circus act with horses. Harlowe Wilcox nearly lets the horse out of the bag, but Fibber distracts him into delivering the sponsor message.

Molly steps out when Teeny visits. The tiny tot already knows about the horse, but who told her? What cvolor is it? Does Fibbers horse eat straw, or hay? The Kingsmen sing, Gay CCaballero.

After seeing the big green brute in the garage, Molly finally learns about the horse Fibber has been hiding. Wallace Wimple arrives to tell how his big old wife deals with keeping secrets. Fibber tries to defend his decision to have the horse, but a visit from the mayor may be the solution to take it off his hands. Until Molly finds herself becoming attached.
