Believe it or not, we've reached our season finale! This week, Ricky decides to try for a raise at work and, at Lucy's urging, he implies he's in heavy demand. When his boss Mr. Littlefield lets him go to pursue these other imaginary opportunities, Lucy and the Mertzes decide to prove to Mr. Littlefield that he really needs Ricky. Shenanigans, accents, and drag ensue! Discussions this week include Hamilton, silent film, and generous editing.
