This hilarious episode was first released
November 9, 1953.
Ricky makes a bet with Lucy that she
can't tell the truth for 24 hours. She can't even tell an exaggeration.
The fun starts immediately when Lucy
hosts a friendly game of bridge with her friends. Ethel, in on the bet
of course, eggs on their friends to ask Lucy questions about her age,
weight, and natural hair color to name a few things. Laughter erupts
when Lucy's brutally honest answers surprise and shock everyone
involved.
Later, Lucy's honesty lands her a
show-biz job as an assistant to a knife thrower! Ricky eventually lets
her out of the bet so things can get back to normal- but not before
you're left on the floor rolling with laughter.
