Episode Report Card Cate: F | Grade It Now! YOU GRADE IT I Love Lucy
By Cate | Season 7 | Episode 15 | Aired on 02.09.2003
Bobby Short and his band are still playing while Lucy and Kevin toast each other with half-glasses of sparkling wine. I certainly hope it's non-alcoholic, since I don't think Lucy is twenty-one yet. Kevin actually answers his cell phone when it rings, except he has to get all cutesy and say, "Kevin Kinkirk, future husband of Lucy Camden." Yeah, that just makes all his abusiveness A-okay. God, he's a tool. He leaves to talk to his mother in private. At least while he's gone we get to see Bobby Short, rather than Lucy staring at her damn ring some more.
Kevin comes back and breaks the news that his mother is getting married. Not only that, but they "want to go to Europe -- maybe even Italy -- for six months." Newsflash for robots (and Brenda): Italy is part of Europe. Really. It's true. Kevin tells Lucy he'd like to have his mother at the wedding, but that then they will have to get married in April. Lucy freaks out at first, and then acquiesces. Just like that. I guess she's no longer crazy. It's amazing what a diamond ring can do.
