Overview

Alaska is celebrating statehood! Red Skelton invites Ricky Ricardo to appear on his television show that is being filmed in the new state. The entire gang comes along and take a look at a recent Alaskan land investment by Ricky & Fred. Unfortunately, accomadations are scarce and the foursome must share a room, with Lucy spending the night on a troublesome hammock. The following morning, Lucy lucks out and lands an appearance on the TV show with Red in a Freddy the Freeloader sketch. Clever Lucy begins to believe she can pawn off the bad land investment on Red, and the two head out to take a look. Ultimately stranded, the two redheads trade land for airfare, but on the way back, Lucy and Red end up having to pilot the plane to safety.
