"Instead of Sending Me a Bill, Send Me an Oscar!"

Lucy schemes to get fired so she can take a trip to Palm Springs with Kim - just as Harry's therapist tells him to be extra nice to her.

This is another lousy episode that gives HERE'S LUCY its lowly reputation. Ms. Ball herself referred to the script as "crap". The premise could have resulted in a much better script, since Lucy and Harry are both required to go "against the grain" in their behavior, but even that scene falls flat.

During the sequence in the psychiatrist's office, Harry lets loose an unintelligible rant about Lucy, but he does blurt out a line about "stuck on her finger" which was a reference to the famous Liz Taylor/Diamond ring Season-opener.

The highlight is when Lucy shows up in a far-out early Seventies outfit that makes her look like a cross between Maude, Daphne from SCOOBY-DOO and Wiggy from PEBBLES & BAMM BAMM. Harry's reaction: "It's odd, it's weird, it's crazy, it's YOU!". It's just not enough to save this dud of an episode. 4/10.
