- Ricky Ricardo: Now, Mrs. Ricardo, if you don't mind, I think that I am entitled to a little bit of an explanation of WHAT IS GOING ON HERE!
- Lucy Ricardo: Uh, Ethel would you excuse us? I have a little explaining to do to Ricky.
- Ethel Mertz: You sure have, dear. Good night!
- [Ethel runs off]
- Lucy Ricardo: Now, now, Ricky, sit down, dear. Sit down. Oh, wait till you hear!
- [Chuckling nervously]
- Lucy Ricardo: It's so funny, and it's so simple.
- Ricky Ricardo: Well, what is it?
- Lucy Ricardo: Well, you know this morning, when we had that discussion about money? Well, Ethel and I -
- [the doorbell rings]
- Lucy Ricardo: Oh, I'll get it.
- Ricky Ricardo: No, no, *I'll* get it.
- [Ricky opens the door]
- Arnold - The First Husband: Is this the Ricardo residence?
- Ricky Ricardo: Yes?
- Arnold - The First Husband: [He walks over to Lucy and puts his arm around her] Darling! Don't you recognise me? It's Arnold!
- Ricky Ricardo: Well!
- Lucy Ricardo: [Wide eyed and in shock] Ricky, I want you to meet my second first husband!
- Lucy Ricardo: Now, Ricky, listen to me, please, listen to me! That's what they asked me to do at the radio program in order to win that thousand dollars, and I came home and I tried to do it, and I don't know who that first man was, but I was never married to him, and this is the man from the program, and he's my real first husband, but I was never married to him either, and that's the truth, so help me!
