I Love Lucy S02E20 - The Black Eye

Lucy and Ricky are both engrossed in a thrilling novel, and decide to read it aloud to enjoy it at the same time. When Ricky tosses the book to Lucy for her to put it away, it accidentally hits her in the face, giving her a black eye. Trouble begins when Fred and Ethel overhear the dialogue from the novel and, seeing the black eye, fear the worst. When Ethel will not accept the truth, Lucy concocts a "juicy story" about her falling in love with another man, which only leads to further trouble.
