Audio is staticky, but OK. Rico Marcelli’s Orchestra opens with, Whose Honey Are You. Fibber is trying to raise money by being a door-to-door encyclopedia salesman. Molly joins him as he makes the rounds to Mrs. Tweedledick. Will she go for his old college try? After a few slammed doors, teeny gives Fibber a hard time about her age, and who might be home. Doesn’t she understand? Is it that she just isn’t all that bright? Nick Dipopolus and Harlow Wilcox are too preoccupied by the sponsor to buy what Fibber’s selling.
Rico Marcelli plays, and John Labier sings, I’ll Feast My Eyes on You. Is Nick the kind of a college man who might be interested in Fibbers wares? He might be too smart for Fibbers encyclopedias. Rico plays some travelling music.
Fibber may finally have found a man he can resonate with, a man who seems in tune with his sales pitch. The sales tables are soon turned and Fibber becomes the client of his own boss.
Note: Mrs. Tweedledick is voiced by Marian Jordan. You know who that is don’t you? If you don’t, go back and listen to the opening segment.
