Note: An excerpt from the original script has the boys cooking up an idea to get the fur coat off of Lucy. It was canned due to the fact that back then the censors wouldn’t allow it. (Boy times have changed.) Fred says he will turn up the heat. He leaves. Later on, Lucy is still wearing the coat, says she is naked underneath the coat.
