Being in episode from AFrs, music fills the gaps where commercials would be. We opened with the musical from Freddie Rich, “swing low.” Bud accuses Lou of being a net lit, but is he really sick? You Bud tries to take his vital signs, and asks him if he is taking care of himself properly. Ken Niles appears with his own advice on what to do when feeling under the weather. When Mrs. Niles shows up, Lou compares her to a barracuda. The jokes turned towards misunderstandings about vitamins.
Connie Haynes sings, “saltwater cowboy.”
Freddie Rich and the orchestra play, “I’ve got you under my skin.”
Bud still thinks his partner is crazy, and describes a little bit of his odd behavior. He insists on taking him to a psychiatrist. The psychiatrist, Mel blank, give some word association tests. Linda Darnell is his nurse. Now that he has a pretty nurse, Lou agrees that he is a very sick man. He tries to ask her on a date, but can he compete with her boyfriend? Can he convince her he needs time at a rest home?
Connie Haynes sings, “a lovely way to spend an evening.” She follows it by, “Spring will be a little late this year.”
Arriving at the rest home, Bud and Lou joke about some of Lou’s relatives. Will Linda door and be able to sue Lou’s nerves? She introduces Lou to the doctor, who lays out some of the rules of the home. Lou was introduced to another doctor who may offer him advice, if only he can wake him up.
Freddie Rich plays a Cole Porter tune, “I love you.”
