Note: I heard that when this episode was shown in the 70s, Lucy’s line when she sees Ricky & Fred with black soot in their faces “Well if it ain’t the Coal Dust twins” was muted due to it at the time being offensive. Yes, this was before cancel couture. Obviously that line I don’t think won’t fly today but the line has been restored.
