Jack Takes a Boat to Hawaii

The sketch is the same as the one done on Sept. 13, 1953. Jack is waiting for his ship to depart for Los Angeles after his Hawaiian vacation. Everyone is given a lei except him. Slepperman appears and gives him one made of chicken livers. Rochester arrives late because he has been crowned King Kameamea VI by the islanders. On board, Dennis appears; he tells Jack he swam all the way to Hawaii, then jumps overboard to swim home. Jack falls asleep and dreams he has a shipboard romance with Jayne Mansfield. Jayne sings "You're just too marvellous for words," and Jack wakes to discover he has just kissed an overweight woman passenger.
