Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Hoping to go into business for himself (though exactly what business is never made clear), Ralph Kramden talks his pal Ed Norton into a $20 investment; in exchange, Ed is appointed Vice President. After a week, it is fairly obvious that Ralph Kramden, Inc. will probably never turn a profit, but salvation seems to be at hand when Ralph discovers that wealthy widow Mary Monahan has mentioned her in his will. Anticipating a huge chunk of the old lady's $40 million, Ralph tries to con Ed into giving up his percentage of the business. Needless to say, Ralph's share of Mary Monahan's "fortune" is not quite what he expected. Written by A.J. Russell and Herbert Finn, "Ralph Kramden Inc." first aired on February 4, 1956.
