About this episode
Originally Aired: January 6, 1942 Fibber McGee & Molly #308, "Night Out," Fibber decides to take Molly out for an evening of nightclubbing, motivated by his peculiar sense of economy - he has a spare dress collar left over from Mrs. Uppington's New Year's Eve party and doesn't want it to go to waste. As he dresses in his shiny, aging tuxedo that he's owned since 1925, Molly questions both the suit's condition and Fibber's choice of evening destinations. They debate between the Pomegranate Room, the Stork Club, and the Cuba Libra, with Fibber boasting about his rumba skills despite never having danced it before. Their preparations are interrupted by visits from the downtrodden Mr. Wimple, returning from a trip and dreading reunion with his domineering wife, and the sophisticated Mrs. Uppington. Fibber's inflated confidence about his dancing abilities becomes evident as he brags to Mrs. Uppington about being a devotee of terpsichore, though Molly reminds him that at the New Year's party, he mistook a serving maid for a guest and danced her past the buffet.
