Lucy (Lucille Ball) and Ethel (Vivian Vance) are unable to pry Ricky (Desi Arnaz) and Fred (William Frawley) away from the TV when the fights are on. In desperation, the girls decide to go out on their own for a bite to eat, leaving the boys firmly planted on the living-room couch. Unfortunately, everyone at the neighborhood diner is glued to the televised fights as well, including police officer Jenkins (Allen Jenkins). Taking drastic action, Lucy and Ethel decide to snip the TV antenna wires on the top of their apartment building -- when who should arrive on the scene but the selfsame Officer Jenkins, who happens to be on the lookout for a pair of lady crooks named "Pickpocket Pearl" and "Sticky Fingers Sal."
