First draft of a script for the sitcom Here’s Lucy for an episode entitled “‘Lucy Goes Hawaiian’ (Part II),” 8.5 x 11, 25 pages, March 30, 1970. The front cover is labeled “Lucy’s Notes,” and the script is annotated by Ball in pencil on the inside and back cover, making many comments, revisions, and additions throughout, adding these pencil notations to nine pages. Comments throughout the script include: “Fix as discussed, sounds like man was mad or interrupted,” “Out of blue. Fix—too radio-like,” and “TOO INSOLENT, make polite.” Some notes on the reverse include: “Desi—Don Ho (Tiny Bubbles),” “Bus Boys—(crew) one specialty,” “Fat Hawaiian (Find out),” “Lucy & Harry do Cockeyed Mayor,” and “Get something for Viv to do.” In fine condition. Here's Lucy ran on CBS from 1968 to 1974, and this particular episode aired on February 22, 1971—it was Desi Arnaz, Jr.'s final appearance as a cast regular, reappearing on just one more episode in the fifth season. In the episode, he does an impression of Don Ho singing ‘Tiny Bubbles,’ as mentioned in Lucy’s notes, and Vivian Vance sings ‘Yellow Bird,’ the last full musical solo number she sang on a Lucy program. A great behind-the-scenes look at the creative process of the great comedienne. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
