39-10-06 Double Feature in Hopewood

STARRING: ART VAN HARVEY, BERNARDINE FLYNN AND BILL IDELSON  

Without consulting Vic, Sade has accepted a car trip for them both to Hopewood to see a double feature with Fred and Ruthie Stembottom.

Vic, who has already seen (and despised) both films showing at the theatre, calculates that they may not get in bed until 4 A.M.

Meanwhile, Sade tries to calm down Vic as much as possible so that he doesn't create a scene when the Stembottoms arrive (ahhhoooga!) to pick them up.

________________________

Vic had planned on going to bed early. When he finds out he has to go to Hopewood, he's upset.

It's just another case of Sade sticking her neck out without asking Vic - although to be fair, Vic does the same thing to Sade with his lodge activities.

This is a fun episode. Rush takes a backseat on this one; he doesn't say much at all. He's thankful (I suppose) that he doesn't have to go see the Gloria Golden films.

Trivia:

+ Vic was dragged away from playing indoor horseshoes at Ike Kneesuffer's place. He was ahead by 30 cents.

+ The Bijou is closed for repairs in this episode.

+ The towns of Chenoa and Hopewood are mentioned. Both cities have a motion picture theater.

+ The double-feature films they are going to see both star Gloria Golden. The first picture is You Are My Own Wonderful Husband, Subaltern Gleek and Yours Is A Magnificent Love, Petty-Officer Griswold. Vic and Sade have already seen both of them. Vic hates both films.
