I Love Lucy heads in a whole new direction for its final 13 episodes when Lucy (Lucille Ball), feeling confined by apartment living, talks Ricky (Desi Arnaz) into making a deposit on a spacious country house in Westport, CT. But no sooner has Ricky done so than Lucy changes her mind, choosing to remain in New York with her friends the Mertzes. Unfortunately, Ricky is unable to get back the 500-dollar deposit, leaving it up to Lucy, Fred (William Frawley), and Ethel (William Frawley) to hatch an elaborate scheme (replete with garish costumes) to retrieve the cash. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
