Bob “Broadcasting from Drew Field” Hope lets loose with jokes comparing Florida to California. Mosquitoes, swamps, local girls and attractions. Also flight training the soldiers go through.
Skinny Ennis sings, Things Are Getting Better All the Time.
Francis Langford joins Bob to joke about Tampa, dating, being in shape, and her home town in Florida. The soldiers may not get home, but the go to nearby St Petersburg. They begin a sketch of an elderly Bob and Francis, retiring to their rockers on a front porch, recalling old times in the Army.
Francis sings, More and More.
Edward G Robinson arrives to hear Bob tell tough guy jokes. Edward tries to show his softer side, and even reveals his middle name. Somehow I don’t really think the “G” stands for Geranium. Though Edward claims too enjoy nature, he and Bob don’t drift far from the tough guy jokes about their childhoods. Jerry Colonna is only a phone call away to joke about girls and getting his bank book in order. Are the sweet southern belles any different from girls in other places?
