Ricky's Screen Test
Lucy Learns to Drive
Revealing: Look closely at the Ricardos' new Pontiac convertible. There is no glass within the windshield frame.
First Stop
Visible crew/equipment: After driving all day, the Ricardos and Mertzes stop by a run-down diner that serves only stale cheese sandwiches, then end up there again only to spend the night in their one motel room. While they're all in their beds, the vibration of the nearby train causes the Ricardo's bed to shakily slide towards the Mertzes and then back again. The wire attached to the Ricardo's bed is visible.
Other: In this episode, Fred and Ethel claim that the bed they are sleeping in is just like the one they have been sleeping on for years. It is double bed with a big sag in the middle. However in an earlier episode "Vacation from Marriage" they show Lucy and Ethel in the the Mertz's bedroom and they have twin beds.
Ethel's Home Town
Continuity: Ethel's full name in this episode is Ethel Mae Potter; however in a earlier episode, Fred calls her Ethel Louise, and in another episode she is called Ethel Roberta.
