After Ricky leaves for work, Betty knocks on Lucy's door to tell her that she'd just talked to Ralph and he'd arranged for them to go to a wholesale furniture house that afternoon. Lucy is excited and invites Betty to have some coffee. There is a cup and saucer all set at an empty place at the table. Lucy didn't know that Betty was going to come over - she and Ricky had just finished breakfast and the other two places at the table had the dishes that they'd used.
