George introduces himself, then his orchestra leader, John Scott Trotter to his audience, then his guest, Fred Mac Murray, saxophone in hand, who wants something to do, but George refuses.

In his monologue, George comments on "Good Grammar Week", as he shows his own good grammar weak. At a penny arcade, he runs into Jackie Cooper, who turns out to be an old army buddy from the war. Even as it becomes clear that Jackie is a loud, pushy jerk, George is compelled to invite him home to dinner. George's wife is not happy to meet Jackie, as he gets fresh and even picks her up. Then he guzzles down what he thinks is a bottle of booze he finds in the Gobel kitchen, but it turns out to be Vanilla extract.

It's academy award time, but George thinks theatre audiences should be eligible too, and has several nominees. Guests Jefferey Hunter and Jeff Donnell show a homecoming scene of a Hollywood star with a wonderful disposition, then the same scene if he was a foul-tempered brute.

The monologue has George commenting on the ongoing turmoil in the French government. He then demonstrates several items used in the playing of Mambo music, including gourds and mule bones. In the main skit, he has a ridiculously small Italian sports car that he tries to sell to ridiculously large Buddy Baer.
