What a riot this one is!!  Kingfish is in the doghouse cause he and Sapphire were at a party and he danced with every lady and not her!    He said ..."by the time I got to you my hip gave out". 

 He tries to win  her back, but a handsome,  ex boyfriend is coming to see her.  This is where it goes hilarious.  They compete for Sapphire,  especially with the flowers,  and a dance in the living room.  As per usual Calhoun, Andy and Kingfish plot to ship him out!  This is one of my favorites!  😁😁

Kingfish and Andy stopped to take a photo in front of a jewelry store, and they accidentally caught a picture of a bank robber.  
There is a $1000 reward and And has the film.  Kingfish attempts to get the film from Andy but needs to have him unconscious.  Lightning gives Kingfish the idea the ceiling is about to collapse and would make someone unconscious.  

 There is also a chase with the robber.  The craziest part, for me, is the plan for the ceiling to collapse.

In The Chinchilla Business, Kingfish needs 50.00 to get Mama to move out.  In his need for money-scheme, he tries to dupe Amos into buying “rabbits” as chinchillas.  
The funniest line here is Amos who paid 50.00 and who recognizes two rabbits and not chinchillas and wants his money back!  He threatens Kingfish.  
 Kingfish tells him the “average idiot“ would see those as rabbits.  But you ain’t the average idiot!”   This was another hilarious scheme of Kingfish!
