The Gooks are invited at the last minute to a big meal over at Mis' Harris' rooming house only to be uninvited again before they can leave the house.
_______________
Though there was total confusion, I don't see how Mis' Harris can univite the Gooks.Episode is loads of fun for listening to Vic complain about having to remove his easy slippers and put on a suit.
Trivia:
+ Mr. Breep was mentioned for the first time. He's a roomer at Mis' Harris' house and is also (probably) a lawyer.
+ Dinner at the Harris house was to include steak, biscuits, ice cream "and all the tasty trimmings."
+ Rush inquired whether Mis' Harris would be making "trick mashed potatoes that look like rice" - I wander what he was talking about?
+ The Gook meal included meat (beef punkles?), potatoes, raisin bread, pickles, olives and watermelon.
+ The easy slippers that Vic was wearing had tassels and Indian heads on them; he had gotten them from his in-laws, Bess and Walter Helfer.
+ Before they are about to leave, Sade wants to make sure the front door is locked. There was a time when middle America did not bother to lock their doors but by early April 1941 (the time of this episode), Americans were being rounded up in Germany and Italy, spies were being spotted all over the globe and the world was becoming a smaller, more crime-ridden place.
