The Phil Silvers Show 4.14

Bilko and the Medium

Bilko needs $500 to open a bowling alley. The savings and loan won't give him the money without some form of collateral. Bilko turns to Ritzik for help but Emma, Rupert's wife, knows exactly what Bilko is up to and denies the request.

Bilko brings in a phony medium to try and convince Rupert and Emma Ritzik that loaning him the money is the right thing to do. Things don't go exactly as Bilko had planned. Bilko comes out ahead, momentarily, but his conscience gets the better part of him 

Thoughts

Bilko, Barbella, Henshaw, and Ritzik are the only soldiers in this episode. There are no scenes in this episode that take place at Camp Fremont.

This was a decent episode but felt very run of the mill. There was nothing terribly special about it.
