If Fred bought Ethel a brand new Handy Dandy washing machine in "Sales Resistance," why did he buy the used one from the Ricardos about 14 episodes later in "Never Do Business With Friends"?:confused:

Well, I guess that we are supposed to believe that Ethel did was for the entire city to turn that thing into a wreck in that short amount of time. That is what the I Love Lucy book by Bart Andrews said about those episodes.
