Rough Necking

In this episode of RKO's THE BLONDES AND THE REDHEADS series, Spencer Charters drags Dorothy Granger out of a nightclub and away from Grady Sutton. He hires a woman detective to keep an eye on her, so Carol Tevis and Dorothy have Grady dress in drag to impersonate the detective. In come Texans Fred Kelsey and George Chandler, ready to marry young George to Dorothy, so the girls pass Grady off as Dorothy... and Mr. Charters likes the hefty detectress too.

This episode starts a little slow, but once Kelsey and Chandler enter, it picks up speed with a good final third and a funny finish under the direction of George Stevens, who would soon be graduating to features, in this series which, despite the Production Code, still made it clear it was talking about sex. It's good to see Fred Kelsey, who specialized in dumb cops, in a different role.
