After reading a murder mystery book, Lucy overhears Ricky talking on the phone and incorrectly believes he is trying to replace, and ultimately, kill her. As usual, Lucy turns to Ethel for help. Lucy's paranoia causes concern in Ricky who gets the idea to slip Lucy a Mickey from Fred. Ricky obliges, but Lucy is onto him. She re-arranges the drinks Ricky made so that he will drink the laced cocktail. Ricky foils her plan which causes Lucy to eventually fall asleep. Thinking Lucy is dead, Ethel covers her with a blanket causing Lucy to wake up. The two head then to Ricky's rehearsal where they learn Ricky was looking to rid of the same dogs that were part of his show's act. And here you thought every episode featured Lucy attempting to weasel her way into Ricky's show...
