Gail Bonney, who plays Mrs. Hudson, hires Lucy to babysit her twin boys, who tie Lucy up while playing Cowboys and Indians. Two years earlier, in the movie "The Fuller Brush Girl," Gail Bonney plays a babysitter who rescues Lucy (as Sally Elliot) when Lucy is mistaken for a babysitter and gets tricked into babysitting some children, who tie her up while playing Cowboys and Indians.
"Willie Mae," the unseen contestant Ricky thanks for performing, is a reference to Desi and Lucy's maid of the same name.
