Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe final scene where they cross the bridge was TV's first use of the "process shot" (a moving image projected on a screen behind live actors). In fact they were only allowed to film one take of the Pontiac crossing the bridge, so the car in the background in the process shot is actually the Pontiac the Ricardos and Mertzs are riding in.
- GoofsWhen the Ricardos and the Mertzes are leaving their apartment building in the Ricardos' car (on their way to Hollywood), you can obviously see the tow wires towing the vehicle.
- Quotes
Mrs. McGillicuddy: I took the bus. It let me off right in front of the door.
Lucy Ricardo: Wait a minute. The bus doesn't come down this street.
Mrs. McGillicuddy: That's what the bus driver tried to tell me.

Featured review
Wait'll Mickey Richardson hears about this.
Do I need to review the episode? The title says it. It's a classic episode. Lucy's mother shows up. The whole if so and so isn't going I'm not going but if so and so is going then I'll go is great dialogue. The song at the end how does it not make you cheery? Classic photo of our quartet in the car.
