Today we find Fibber and Molly walking along the street. Along the way they meet the Old Timer who jokes about peanut brittle. The window shopping leads our couple to Donald Novas who sings, I’m Building a Sailboat of Dreams.

After getting word from a newsboy about a prison break, Molly has raced home to protect her jewelry from the escapees. On his own, Fibber continues home at his leasure to meet a crazy character or two, and help with the mid show commercial. Abigail Uppington talks to Fibber about the happenings at her ladies club. Nick the Greek neighbor talks about fireworks, and plans that he has to celebrate the 4th of July. The Four Notes sing, Jonah and the Whale, (Lord Wasn’t that a Fish).

Though there’s more leftto the show, the audio file is short, so we never quite finish the song, and we don’t get to see if Molly made it safely home. I’ll bet she did though.
