- Synopsis:
- Archie and Betty are on a date in the country when he gets a flat tire on his jalopy. Deciding they need help, they go to a local motel, and sign in as Mr. and Mrs. A. Andrews and call a tow truck. Once in the room, Archie starts a fire and the two get out of their wet clothes and dress in blankets, putting their clothes near the fire to dry. Betty calls her parents to let them know she'll be late, but when they discover that she and Archie are in a motel room together, they become angry. When they arrive at the motel, Archie explains what happened, but the Coopers don't believe him.
Indexer Notes
A very racy story for Archie, although Archie and Betty never see each other undressed and nothing romantic or lustful happens in the motel.
Art identifiable as Gus LeMoine by his style. See: http://www.toughguygoods.com/weekly_fastwillie.html
Script uncredited, but identifiable as Dick Malmgren by his distinctive writing style.
