Wanting to make it up to Sapphire for forgetting their 20th wedding anniversary, George "Kingfish" Stevens goes to a shop with Andy to buy her a purse. They get one from a pile of them that, minutes before, had a couple of criminals-one male, one female-hide that female's purse among them. When they come home, Andy looks in the purse and finds the gun. Instead of turning it to the police, Kingfish decides to pawn the weapon...Don't want to reveal any more except that the gun results in some of the most hilarious scenes I've seen from this series so far. And Tim Moore's facial reactions as the Kingfish are so funny. I've got to mention here that Ernestine Wade as Sapphire and Amanda Randolph as her mom add to the fun of the troubles that Kingfish goes through with Randolph saying some choice wisecracks about her son-in-law. Recurring player Roy Glenn is fine in his straight role as the District Attorney prosecuting the Kingfish especially in contrast to George's lawyer, Algonquin J. Calhoun with his comic defense. Funniest episode of "Amos 'n' Andy" I've seen so far.
