Fibber McGee & Molly - Passenger Pigeon Trap
While sitting at home with Molly, McGee is reading a book he "borrowed" from Mr. Wimple about birds. When Mr. Wimple stops by, McGee is quick to point out all the inaccuracies in the text.
For instance, he read that the passenger pigeon has been extinct since 1914. Fibber claims to have seen a passenger pigeon that very morning.
Mr. Wimple explains that if that were true, any zoo would gladly pay thousands of dollars for the bird. With the reward in mind, Fibber, with Molly's blessing, is off to build a passenger pigeon trap.
Featuring: Jim and Marion Jordan, Bill Thompson, Gale Gordon, Arthur Q. Bryan, Harlow Wilcox. Original Air Date: April 27, 1948 on NBC
