The Honeymooners: It's Christmas Eve. Alice is decorating the tree and setting out holiday refreshments. Ralph comes home with potato salad, but Alice says it's the wrong potato salad. It came from DeVito's, which would have been the right place to go for lasagne, but the right potato salad would have come from Krauss'. Ralph can't believe that Alice is actually asking him to go out for different potato salad, and he's right. She's not asking him. She's telling him. He leaves. Trixie enters, and describes to Alice what Ed gave her for Christmas--a juice squeezer that looks like Napoleon and squirts juice out of its ear. Fenwick Babbitt (played by Jackie Gleason) comes by, to deliver ice and beer. After hauling the beer barrel all over the apartment and standing around with the block of ice, he discovers he's in the wrong apartment, and leaves. Ed enters, escorting Patricia Morison. Patricia used to know Trixie in vaudeville. She sings for Alice, Ed, and Trixie. Then Joe the Bartender (played by Gleason) stops in. He says a poor soul down at the bar was the victim of a nasty practical joke by Fatso Fogarty, who told him he had "won" a diamond and then handed him a cheap rhinestone. What made the hoax particularly pathetic was that the poor soul, totally taken in, cherished his prize. Alice, moved by the tale, tells Joe to send the poor soul up, and she'll give him a real present. Joe leaves, taking Patricia Morison with him. Now the Poor Soul (played by Gleason in pantomime) arrives. Alice offers him refreshments and a gift, probably the first gift anyone ever gave him. He touchingly returns the favor by giving her his "diamond," then leaves. The next visitor is Rudy the Repairman (also played by Gleason). Rudy is accompanied by his regular assistant, Whitey, whose chief trait is that he speaks unintelligibly. Rudy makes a pass at Alice and Trixie, destroys the television set, and departs. Alice tells Trixie that it doesn't really matter, since she just had the set on trial. Ed brings in musical guest Phil Napoleon and his Memphis 5. Phil & his band leave and--what do you think?--Reggie Van Gleason III (hmmm, that face...) shows up with a band and the June Taylor Dancers. Reggie has been throwing a party at Joe the Bartender's. Now he's come to bring joy upstairs. The band plays. The dancers dance. Reggie does his inimitable Reggie dance. Then he and his entourage file out. Alice realizes it's been a while since she saw Ralph. Ralph (played by... ) reappears, with a cop. Seems Ralph was knocking on the window of Kraus's, and was arrested for attempted break-in. Alice straightens things out. The cop leaves. Alice and Ralph exchange presents. He gets rabbit-lined gloves. She gets a juice squeezer shaped like Napoleon ("and it's practical, too... ") Running time: ? NOTE: This episode aired only once. This is the 4th of 7 episodes that are considered "Still Lost," they are: 9. "The Turkey" 13. "Question Mark" 18. "Missing Pants" 19. "Honeymooners Christmas Party" 1952 (one reel found - MPI may release) 28. "Easter Hats" 34. "Alice's Birthday" 52. "The Fortune Teller" (half show found - MPI may release) This information is according to the book "The Honeymooners Lost Episodes" by Donna McCrohan and Peter Crescenti. According to this book, these episodes were found, but are in too poor condition to release. Hopefully with today's technology, someone will be able to fix these prints and one day we'll have them to savor. On The Great Gleason VHS release (available from MPI), four different scenes from the two CBS Christmas Party "spactaculars" are shown. The first and fourth acts are from this 1952 version. As well, on the 1988 television special Jackie Gleason: The Great One, a scene with a bugle touting the musical guest was shown from this episode as well. So possibly the complete episode has been "repaired". We can only hope that MPI will eventually release this episode in full.
