» » The Lucy Show Lucy Is a Kangaroo for a Day (1962–1968)

Short summary

Lucy takes a secretarial temp job in order to afford a bicycle for Jerry's birthday. Lost in a modern office, she has disastrous contact with the electric pencil sharpener, the water cooler, and the electric typewriter. Her exasperated employer sends on out on errands when her dress gets caught in an elevator and unravels. Not wanting to deliver contracts in her unmentionables, Lucy borrows a kangaroo costume to finish her chores

Lucy says the new bicycle will cost $75.00. This was unusually high for a child's bicycle in 1962, especially since it would be equivalent to $588 in 2015 after adjusting for inflation.
