Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Forewarned that starstruck Lucy (Lucille Ball) and Ethel (Vivian Vance) intend to accost French film idol Charles Boyer at a Parisian sidewalk restaurant, Ricky (Desi Arnaz) manages to reach Boyer first to prepare the poor fellow for the assault to come. The amused actor decide to play a trick on Lucy, pretending not to be "himself" but instead a Charles Boyer lookalike named Maurice DuBois. The situation is milked to the last drop when Lucy hires "Maurice DuBois" to pose as Charles Boyer in order to arouse Ricky's jealousy.
