No, ladies, you cannot be in the show.

Now where have we heard that before? Forgetting that he was Rafael del Fado, the script writers even drop Desi's name in a reference to guest star Don Rickles who thinks that his luggage is on its way to Cuba. Poor Don gets the Kay and Eve treatment, doused with Kay's lasagna and nearly shishkabobbed by Eve. This is almost Don's punishment to himself for insults past, present and future, finding that the suit that is doused lasagna is now the perfect size for Charlie McCarthy. It's funny to see Don playing against type, beleaguered and victimized, and this ends up being one of the funniest shows of the series. The double dose of housewives trying to get into the act is double trouble for the husbands and Don looks very pretty in Eve's really pink robe. Even when Don ends up in a hotel room, he can't escape Eve and Kay which gives this episode a double dose of laughs.

Don Rickles guest stars

Don Rickles will be appearing at Herb and Roger's lodge show and Eve and Kaye want to get in on the act.

A funny episode as Rickles shows up at the Hubbard house for a home cooked meal. His luggage is lost at the airport and Eve and Kaye ruin his suits with lasagne and a flaming shish kebab. He ends up wearing a pink frilly robe for most of the show. Funniest scene is when he explains his real name is Pickles and how he changed his name. Eve and Kaye have a hard time containing their laughter at his ad libs.
