The Phil Silvers Show 4.17

Bilko's Grand Hotel

Bilko invests the platoon's money in a pizza stand but there's a mishap and the pizza stand burns down. 

Bilko next gets the idea to buy the run down husk of a building that used to be a hotel and sell it to the Hilton Hotel chain. He signs a contract to buy the building only to learn that he has bought it from the Hilton Hotel chain who were looking to get rid of it.

Bilko's next scheme is to denigrate the name of the Hilton Hotel chain by making it look like the run down hotel is a Hilton in the hopes that the owners of the hotel chain will pay them to shut it down.

Thoughts

Colonel Hall was not in this episode. All the soldiers in this episode were enlisted men.

This was mildly amusing but definitely not great.
