A production for a studio of soldiers, and likely for airing over AFRS, since the commercials are missing, and extra music is added throughout the show. George politely complains about the new maid. Mrs Regan may be a good enough cook, and family servant, but he's getting tired of having chowder all the time, especially for breakfast. Bill enters to hear about how George was offended at Gracie defending Mrs Regan. Will it end up in a sponsor message? Will Gracie be able to snap George out of his mood?
