The Honeymooners: 1x15

Suspense

Alice is in the bedroom rehearsing for a play with Trixie in which a woman plots to kill her husband. Ralph and Ed walk in and overhear them. Ralph thinks she wants to kill him. The Nortons leave and Ralph tells Alice that he overheard her in the bedroom. She thinks that Ralph knows she was rehearsing for the play, and is just against her acting. She catches on to what Ralph thinks when she puts a vitamin in his juice and he accuses her of trying to poison him. Alice “confesses” and says that if she can’t kill him, she’ll kill herself, and drinks the juice. Ralph is hysterical, thinking that he is about to lose Alice. Alice “recovers” and tells Ralph the truth. Ralph threatens to beat her up, but she reminds him how he was acting a few minutes ago, saying that she’s his whole world. Ralph kisses her.
