View Full Version : Lies lies...all lies
Ireneparalegal 07-11-2008, 01:06 PM Lucy was a fibber, whether it was to hide something, to get what she wanted, to keep a secret, to impersonate someone else, etc. she really knew how to lie and sometimes get away with it. :lol:
Can we list all of her lies? ;)
You may add the lies of any character who appeared on the show.
THE QUIZ SHOW: she was told to lie to Ricky abt her former husband in order to win the cash prize. She ended up having to lie abt two men when she thought the bum who arrived at the door was from the contest.
GIRLS WANT TO GO TO A NIGHTCLUB: Lucy (along with Ethel) pretends to be Ricky's blind date, a country bumpkin.
THE DIET: Lucy had to pretend to NOT know Ricky during the audition.
kooky12 07-11-2008, 02:09 PM Lucy lied to the lady at the employment agency, when she said that she and Ethel were candy makers.
desilu #1 07-11-2008, 02:41 PM This is a doozy. Lucy lied to Caroyln Appleby about hosting a part with a bunch of movie stars and then had to rent a bunch of costumes to impersonate them. Of course she told her about dancing with Van Johnson, although that turned out alright until she brought up the movie star party.

She also lied and schemed (along with Ethel) abt Caroline's glasses. :lol:
schoolmom 07-11-2008, 06:47 PM She did tell quite a few fibs. Remember the episode where she has to tell the
truth for 24 hours? It was really hard for her at first. Then I think she actually
enjoyed telling her so-called "friends" what she really thought. Example-
Carolyn's new furniture, Marion's new hat.

"...I've waited 25 years for you to lay that egg!" :rofl:
Lucy then went on to lie abt speaking italian. :crazy:
Larry Surrell 07-11-2008, 08:08 PM In Monte Carlo she lied to Ricky about the money she won in the casino.
Ireneparalegal 07-11-2008, 08:15 PM In THE SEANCE, Lucy tells Mr. Meriweather they are going to have a seance. Ethel portrays MEDIUM RAYA. They proceed to convince Mr. Meriweather that he is in contact with "Tillie".
Haunted_Armoire 07-11-2008, 08:46 PM She lied about being Ricky's Agent.
Ireneparalegal 07-11-2008, 10:32 PM Lucy lied to Ricky abt calling the car insurance agent just so she could learn to drive.
Lucy lied at first abt how the cars "got that way". :lol:
Lucy lied to the car dealer guy by saying she works for a tv studio who is searching for an old cadillac.
ALL THESE LIES IN ONE EPISODE! :eek:
No one has mentioned Lucy's "comeuppance" about her lying, that is in "Lucy Cries Wolf." She calls Ricky, twice lying about a "big tall fiendish-looking man" who forced his way in, then she lied to the Mertzes because (she tells Ricky, actually lying to him again) he was still there and threatened her. Then after Ricky comes home and they find out she is hiding on the ledge, she continues to lie about the man being there; then finally when she really is abducted by 2 masked men and returns tied up and gagged, they will not believe the truth.

Ricky lied too abt that phone call. :lol:
Ireneparalegal 07-11-2008, 11:25 PM Let me edit this thread by saying you can add the lies of any of the characters who appeared on ILL...that should make this thread more interesting. Not that Lucy didn't lie enough. :lol:
Haunted_Armoire 07-11-2008, 11:56 PM Well hell they lied to Mr. Benjamin! :lol: Making him think they hadn't whacked him! :lol: :lol: They posed him all up and then started talking to him as if nothing has happened! :lol:
Haunted_Armoire 07-11-2008, 11:58 PM Mr. Jenkins (furniture sales man) is a dam liar too!! :lol:
Haunted_Armoire 07-12-2008, 12:00 AM Ruth Kickerbocker is a liar!!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:
She kept up that she was the real "Ruth Knickerbocker" but admitted at her age she didn't want to SPOIL THE FUN! :)

That B***H!!!!!!! I can't forgive her for what she did! :snob:
Hell, Lucy didn't need her anyways, so there. :p
Ireneparalegal 07-12-2008, 12:10 AM Ten. ;)
Oops my bad. :crazy:
*nipping at the cooking sherry*
Haunted_Armoire 07-12-2008, 12:11 AM That B***H!!!!!!! I can't forgive her for what she did! :snob:

She was ridiculous!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:
Larry Surrell 07-12-2008, 11:43 AM Barney Kurtz is a dirty liar! To his GRANDCHILD! :p
The Mertzes lied to Barney Kurtz too when they told him how well financially they were doing.
Ethel lied to her father when she told him she was going to Hollywood to star in a movie.
Ricky lied to Lucy about knowing the date of their wedding anniversary.
Ireneparalegal 07-12-2008, 12:06 PM In THE GIRLS WANT TO GO TO A NIGHTCLUB, the girls lied abt going out with dates. What married woman in her right mind tell her husband she has a date? :crazy: The boys in turn lied abt having dates as well.
Ricky lies abt the mink coat he brings home. Lucy lied to Ricky when she told him their anniversary was coming up, which caused Ricky to be worried since he forgot.
Ricky lies abt being in the park feeding the pigeons, solely to make Lucy feel better abt the whole Rosemary issue.
Mrs. Hudson lies to Lucy in the babysitting episode. She has TWINS, not one child.
In the mink coat episode, Lucy tells Ethel near the end that she has lied many times to Ricky about the date of their anniversary; whenever she sees what she wants as a [expensive] present; so much that she has forgotten the real date herself. Either she was also lying on that point, or she found out by their next one, when a surprise party was planned. No wait... they had to go back to Connecticut and get really married, so the new date was then that date (wasn't it?) :lol:
Ireneparalegal 07-12-2008, 12:22 PM ^^^Well, Ricky got the girl at the marriage license bureau to lie to Lucy abt the marriage license being no good, which he fessed up to in Connecticut. So the second marriage didn't count, it was merely a renewal of vows. ;)
Fred lied to Ricky abt the rent being $10 a month more per month which in turn caused Ethel to tell Ricky the truth (behind the scenes) and she gave him back the extra $10 per month. How Ethel managed to hide that secret from Fred I am still awaiting a response to that since his books would reflect $10 missing from the accounts. :confused:
In the Swiss Alps episode, Ethel confessed to Fred her real age, but he told her HER REAL AGE as he knew all along. :lol: The trio also admitted to Lucy they had eaten her sandwich when she took a nap.
The trio tried to hide from Ricky the fact Fred loused up the trip to Switzerland and sent the band elsewhere.
Haunted_Armoire 07-14-2008, 09:35 PM I think some sort of LIAR prize needs to go to Mrs. Hanson of Hanson's Dress Shop. :) Not only did she have phony customers faking buying her clothing she made a up a huge lying story about her mother, her grandmother :eek: :lol: , her burned down house and her dead car. And Lucy did her share of lying in that ep too. "Our phone is dead!" "The check is good!" "This is the MAID speaking Mr.Ricardo is here but he doesn't speak any English! You don't speak Spanish do you? Oh, you DO!" :eek: :mad: This ep has to have more lies than any other one! :lol:

I just "watched" this whole episode by reading your post. :rofl: Don't forget the girls lied to the boys abt buying the dress shop, they lied when the boys appeared in front of the store (chances of that happening?) and also when Lucy pretended to be an old lady in a wheelchair with a broken leg to boot! :crazy:
Geez, I wonder, with this episode and the one where Lucy lies abt the man breaking into the apartment, DAYAAAAAAMN! We need to really do a checklist here to see which episode was the worst! :lol: :crazy:
Haunted_Armoire 07-14-2008, 10:29 PM When I get a chance I'll watch "The Girls Go Into Business" and I'll list all the lies as they unfold. It's a dirty job but I gotta do it! :lol:
Ireneparalegal 07-14-2008, 10:54 PM I just remembered another lie from that episode. When Mrs. Hansen asked abt the down payment, Lucy said she had to "transfer assets from her other accounts"...:rofl: Yeah, like Lucy had other accounts. :crazy:
Lucy then told Ricky that the woman on the phone was a friend of hers whose daughter was having difficulty with her spanish class and needed Ricky to help translate things. :lol:
Haunted_Armoire 07-25-2008, 10:22 PM Phoebe Emerson and her charm school. LIES!! :lol: She told the girls that she and her company strive for a "fresh natural look" and then Lucy and Ethel come out looking like a couple of two-bit Broadway hookers. :eek: :lol: :lol: :lol:
Schmoopie 07-26-2008, 12:48 AM Phoebe Emerson and her charm school. LIES!! :lol: She told the girls that she and her company strive for a "fresh natural look" and then Lucy and Ethel come out looking like a couple of two-bit Broadway hookers. :eek: :lol: :lol: :lol:
