Katie, the maid, talks to Liz about her boyfriend, Roscoe. They haven’t seen each other in 15 years. He is a wealthy man, and she has implied that she is also well off. To make proper impressions, Liz decides to swap roles with Katie. As they wait, there’s a knock at the door that leads to mistaken identity, and a joke about the recent election upset that Truman won.
Roscoe finally arrives, and Katie has to wade through a string of lies. She gets a little help from Liz, who gets a little help from the family friend, Correy.
They manage to pull it off. At least until George brings home a client from the bank. Guess who! They have to resume the act for just a little while longer. Correy is back to help run interference on George, but will it work? Since nobody tells George about the play acting, he thinks he’s come home to a mad house. Just how far will Liz go to save face?
Features Lucille Ball as Liz, Richard Denning as George, and Hans Conried as Roscoe.
