Lucy Gets Caught in Draft is the ninth episode of the fifth season of the classic sitcom The Lucy Show. The episode originally aired on November 20, 1967, on CBS.

In this episode, Lucy Carmichael, played by the iconic Lucille Ball, finds herself in a bit of a predicament when she gets caught in a draft, resulting in a cold. She tries all sorts of remedies to cure herself, but nothing seems to work. She even takes some questionable advice from her colleagues at the bank where she works.

Lucy's condition worsens when she receives a phone call from her old flame, Harry Conners (played by Dick Martin), who wants to meet her for lunch. She can't miss the opportunity to rekindle the flame with Harry, but she doesn't want him to see her in such a state. So, she decides to hide her illness from him by inviting him to her apartment.

Meanwhile, Lucy's best friend and roommate, Mary Jane, played by Mary Jane Croft, is worried sick about her. She tries to get Lucy to see a doctor, but Lucy stubbornly refuses, insisting that she can take care of herself.

As the day progresses, Lucy's condition gets worse, and the situation becomes ever more hilarious. She tries to tidy up the apartment before Harry arrives, but repeatedly falls asleep and inadvertently creates chaos. When Harry finally shows up, things quickly spiral out of control.

The episode is chock-full of classic Lucy hijinks, including a memorable scene involving a giant sofa. The physical comedy is top-notch, as always, and Lucille Ball's performance is masterful. She manages to make us laugh even as we worry about her character's health.

Overall, Lucy Gets Caught in Draft is a delightful episode of The Lucy Show that lives up to the series' reputation as one of the greatest sitcoms of all time. It's a perfect showcase for Lucille Ball's comedic talents and a testament to her enduring legacy as a television icon.
