Synopsis by Hal Erickson
In the first episode of a two-part story, Lucy (Lucille Ball) temporarily leaves her bank job to train as a flight attendant for Trans-Global Airways. Lucy's bunkmate and fellow trainee is one Carol Tilford (Carol Burnett)--who happens to be terrified of heights. Small wonder, then, that the girls' first flight for Trans-Global is an unforgettable experience, especially when the in-flight movie breaks down and Lucy and Carol are forced to improvise a show of their own. Highlights include the ladies' a capella performance of "That's Entertainment", not to mention Lucy and Carol's on-target impersonations of Charlie Chaplin, Jimmy Durante and George M. Cohan.
