Every time Lucy and Harry, and Viv and Eddie get together, there is an argument about where to go and what to do. When arguing over movies, Eddie wants to see Ben Hur, Viv wants What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?, Lucy wants to see "the Cary Grant picture", and Harry wants Two For the Seesaw.
Lucy and Harry decide they'd like to spend a Saturday night alone to have a quiet dinner, so they make up a story about having tickets to see a Broadway show.
After they escape, Viv and Eddie (who insist on putting them on the train to New York), they go to a new restaurant, the Pink Pheasant, where they run into Viv and Eddie. Lucy hides under their table and dines on their unwitting handouts.
