Ricky Ricardo [guest star Victor Cohn-Lopez], Lucy Ricardo [Bynes] and others in “Unfinished Business”

RRRicky Ricardo [guest star Victor Cohn-Lopez]

Lucy, I'm home!

LRLucy Ricardo [Bynes]

Ricky!

RDRicky [disappointed]

Lucy, you bought that new hat!

LLucy

Yes; doesn't it look smart?

RRicky

If I told you once, I told you a thousand times; no more new hats!

LLucy

But, Ricky...I saw it in the window at Gimble's and I just had to have it.

RRicky

Lucy, we simply cannot afford it. Now, you just have to take it back.

LLucy

But, Ricky...

RRicky

Take it back.

LLucy

No. I won't do it.

RRicky

Fine. I'll do it.(He takes the hat off of her head, and she starts crying; somebody knocks at the door, and Ricky opens it) Lucy, look. It's Fred and Ethel Mertz, our wacky next-door neighbors.

FMFred Mertz [Thompson]

Ah, for corn's sakes, what's the matter with Lucy now?

RRicky

Aw, she's all mad 'cause I won't let her have this new hat.

LLucy

Ethel, I bet Fred would let you buy a new hat.

EMEthel Mertz [Denberg]

Are you kidding? It's been 10 years since Fred let me buy new underwear.

LLucy

Well, I guess if I can't have a new hat, then I'll have to put this trophy on my head.(She does so; the trophy completely covers her head)

RRicky

Lucy! Take the trophy off your head!

LLucy

Oh, all right.(She tries to take off the trophy; it's stuck) It's stuck!

RRicky

Oh, no!

EEthel

Hang on, honey. We'll help you.

RRicky

All right. I'll grab her; you two pull.

RRicky

One...two...three...

EEthel

Aw, c'mon, honey. Let's go down to my apartment and bake something.

RRicky

Women...ai, yai-yai, yai-yai...

FFred

Yep. Women. Can't live with 'em...can't stand 'em.

RRicky

Hello? What; that's wonderful!(He hangs up) Fred, I have wonderful news!

FFred

Ethel fell down the stairs?

RLRicky [laughs]

No; that was my agent! There's a big Hollywood movie producer, and he wants me to be in his new picture! He's on his way right now!

FFred

A big Hollywood movie producer comin' here to see you! Holy Toledo.

RRicky

He'll be here any minute; uh, I'd better go get ready!(He departs)

FFred

I'll help you with your pants!

RORicky [offscreen]

Wonderful!

PGProducer [guest star Hugh Aodh O'Brien]

Ricky...it's me, the big Hollywood movie producer!

RORicky [offscreen]

Be right down! Have a seat!

PProducer

'Kay.(The producer sits down on the couch, and Lucy and Ethel return)

LLucy

Ethel! Look!

EEthel

There's a strange man on your couch!

LLucy

He must be a burglar!

LLucy

Put a bucket on his head!

EEthel

Right!(She does so)

LLucy

Spin him...I'll get my saxophone!(Lucy grabs her saxophone and plays)

LLucy

Grab him!

EEthel

Good job, girl!

LLucy

C'mon!

LLucy

I'll get my frying pan!

EEthel

I'll get the turkey!(Ethel hits the producer with the turkey; Lucy hits him with the frying pan; Ethel kicks him in his right shin; Lucy prepares to punch him) Give it to him, Lucy!

EEthel

Nice punch.

LLucy

Thanks, girl. Let's go tell the boys.

RRicky

Where's the Hollywood movie producer?

LELucy and Ethel [in unison]

Hollywood movie producer?!

RRicky

Lucy...you got some 'splainin' to do!
