Still In Mind

This episode is pretty much an excuse to showcase Tommy and Jimmy Dorsey, two of the absolute greats of the Big Band Era. Ralph is the entertainment director for the bus company and manages to get both of these guys to agree to perform (outrageous of course, since they can't be paid). The problem is that they hate each other and when they both show up, heads are about to roll (actually Ralph's head). Anyway, things are never as dire as they seem as it turns out. We need to remember that The Honeymooners were only a part of the big show.
