Show Segments
Phil Silvers meets with Corporals Henshaw and Barbella at Lindy's. They run into Ed Sullivan. They all reminisce about a scene that had to be shortened in the previous episode that Sullivan showed up in. They also tell him some stories about moments that didn't make it into other episodes.
The first story they tell Sullivan is about a time when Sergeants Ritzik and Grover try to get Bilko to bet on Navy instead of Army in the Army-Navy game. The second story is about a time that Bilko had a hot letter from a gal in New York City and insisted on reading it to the platoon. The third and final story is about a time that Bilko auctioned off some memorabilia from his travels in Europe.
Colonel Hall is not in this episode but he is mentioned and his wife, or rather Hope Sainsberry, the actress who plays his wife, is in it. It is kind of funny how some characters are referred to by their character's names and others by their real names in the parts that take place in Lindy's.
They packed a lot into this one regular length episode. Towards the end I started to wonder how much longer it was going to go on for.
I'm not sure which episodes the additional stories were supposed to be from. None of them sounded familiar.
I like this episode quite a bit even though it is basically a clip show, made up of scenes that were previously unaired.
