Lucy's got a baby...and it sure isn't hers.

Originally, "Motherhunt" was shown in two parts, though there are versions out there where it's instead a double-length episode of "Nero Wolfe Mysteries".

Lucy is a well to do woman...so she can apparently easily afford the services of Nero Wolfe. She wants him to help locate the mother of a baby left on her doorstep. Lucy MIGHT just keep the kid, she isn't sure. But she thinks it's important to locate the mother and Archie seems very interested...mostly because he's interested in Lucy. And, through the course of episode one and two, they become a number...and it's even implied Archie and Lucy have 'carnal knowledge'...in other words, they pork.

This is a very good episode...and much of it is because Lucy is VERY glib and entertaining. Well worth seeing, well written...and, fortunately, part two is also quite good.

Anecdotes
Lucy Valdone tells a lecture audience about a smog-event in London "last December" that killed "4,703 people". This refers to an actual event in December of 1952 called "The Great Fog of London", in which over 4000 people died and many thousands more were made ill by coal smoke smog that stalled over London due to cold weather and an absence of wind. That reference places the events of this story in 1953.

Gaffes
Wolfe's men set up their baby sting operation in what is supposed to be Washington Square Park. There is no lake in the landmark Greenwich Village park.
