Legendary singer Ethel Merman has moved to Danfield under the name of Agnes Schmidlapp, a suggestion from Mr. Mooney to keep down the cost of purchasing a home. Lucy makes a promise to Jerry that she can bring Ethel Merman to sing at his Cub Scout charity show. When it looks like she will end up with egg on her face again, Lucy decides Ms. Schmidlapp looks enough like Ms. Merman to pass physically, if she can only teach her how to sing like the Broadway legend.
