About this episode
Originally Aired: December 23, 1941 In Fibber McGee & Molly #306, "Christmas Presents," the McGees face an irresistible temptation when a mysterious package arrives at their home just before the holidays. Despite Molly's insistence that they wait until Christmas morning to open it, Fibber's curiosity gets the better of him—especially when he speculates it might contain the silver fox furs he's been hoping for. After a battle of wills, both McGees succumb to temptation and tear open the package, only to discover it's an electric chime doorbell with no card indicating who sent it. As visitors drop by their home, including their sponsor Mr. Wilcox and the elegant Mrs. Uppington, the mystery of the doorbell's sender deepens. Fibber brazenly asks each guest if they're responsible for the gift, but no one claims credit. When Fibber decides to install the complicated electrical contraption himself despite his questionable history with home repairs, Molly braces for disaster as another neighbor arrives at their door.
