Vivian saved Lucy's life. Friends forever.

@virginbluedude I was scared when I saw this years ago -- now I understand why!

Vivian Vance should have had her own show once Lucy stopped & Desilu should have produced it. Viv was good enough & deserved it. Every great comedian had great support. Lucy hit the jackpot. What a team. Vivian Vance is terrific in this episode. Look at the expressions on her face! If there is a comedy school they should study her. Lucy, of course, will always be a legend but there are moments when Viv is overwhelmingly hilarious. One of the most original comedy routines I ever saw.

I read somewhere that Lucille couldn't get up when she dunk herself, which is why Vivian pulled her up by her hair. And that look of desperation on her face was real, because she was scared and swallowed a ton of water. Since this shower was the last scene of this episode filmed in front of the audience, Lucille went to grab the Mic to say goodbye when Gary Morton stoled her because he was afraid she'd get electrocuted.

How did was Lucy in trouble? Did she breathe in water or was she down for a lot longer and they cut it out? Wow I would be really claustrophobic under water in that tiny shower it must've been awful to get stuck at the bottom!

It is interesting that Viv has more funny lines in the shower scene than Lucy. Notice how Viv also pulls Lucy up by the hair during the first dunk! Priceless---there absolutely will never be two wonderful women like this ever again.
