Quote from Blanche in Son-in-Law Dearest
Rose: You know, I'm still a little confused. Now, who exactly is Ricky? Blanche: Lucy's husband. Rose: I thought Desi was Lucy's husband. Blanche: Not on the show. Rose: Desi wasn't on the show? Blanche: Desi played Ricky. Rose: Who did Lucy play? Blanche: Lucy. Rose: I know. But who did she play? Blanche: Lucy. Rose: Right. But who did she play? Blanche: Lucy played Lucy. Rose: Well, then, why didn't Desi play Desi? Blanche: He wasn't tall enough.
