I had a near Lucy experience at work. I was working with three Hispanics and two of them only speak Spanish one of them speak both English and Spanish. I only speak English.
Anyway,on break the one that speaks both translates our conversations so no one is left out.
It sort of reminded me of the ep when Lucy was arrested in Paris and they had to go through all that translation to understand one another.:lol:

It also could be like the episode:

Cuban pals~
<episode #28 aired April 21,1952?>

summery:
Ricky's former dance partner, the very sexy Renita, visits them from Cuba, and Lucy is immediately jealous. Enlisting Fred to drive the dancer to Philadelphia, Lucy takes over Renita's number at the club, and ends up in the wildest dance of her life.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
what is so reminding is I was working with three Hispanics and two of them only speak Spanish one of them speak both English and Spanish. I only speak English. well you being Lucy the translator being Ricky and the other 2 as the beginning Guests:
At the beginning while Ricky was going to get some wine that Fred was/forgot to bring to the Ricardos apartment Lucy was talking to the guests who did not speak any English just Spanish and she found it hard to talk (of course knowing her lol) until Ricky came in the room and started talkin to the guests in Spanish and visa/versa

Of course when the guests asked about her hair and he told her that they wanted to know about her hair she insisted that he say or course it is naturally red knowing how her father had red hair ....well her hair lost some as she would say in a way "TRUTH" during that translation
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
I am sorry if that was confusing I tried my best:) :crazy: :crazy:

Isn't Cuban Pals the one where Desi screws up by speaking English to the people he's supposed to be speaking Spanish to? Then he cracks up, and eventually tries to cover. :)
