I Love Lucy (1951)

S5E22 Lucy Gets Homesick in Italy

Fred feels guilty about the costs he incurred when he accidentally sent Ricky's band on the wrong route. To make amends, he secures second-class train tickets for their overnight journey to Florence and finds them a fourth-class hotel for their stay. Lucy is eager to call home and check if Little Ricky has received the birthday gifts she mailed from London, but the challenges of making a call from such a low-quality room nearly overwhelm her. Ultimately, Lucy decides to invite a local shoeshine boy and his friends to join in the birthday festivities for Little Ricky.
