Lucy is not happy about the idea of being separated from Little Ricky, but Ricky insists their son must start nursery school. Lucy then becomes worried when Little Ricky gets sick with tonsillitis and must be hospitalized.

Lucy needs her birth certificate in order to get her passport, but Jamestown has no record of her being born there. She devises a way to sneak to Europe with the others: hide in a large steamer trunk. While trying it out, she ends up locked in the trunk with the key in her pocket. Lucy ends up receiving her birth certificate in the mail from her mother, and learns from her childhood doctor that she was actually born in West Jamestown.
