A Night Out

=Summary= Rigsby is dressed up to the nines, although his pinstriped suit (one of Spooner's cast-offs) a white silk scarf and gloves raise a smile on Alan and Philip's faces. The motive behind Rigsby's incongruous attire is that it's Miss Jones's birthday, and as she's only recieved two cards, he wants to cheer her up. Rigsby plans taking her to The Grange, one of the finest restaurants in the area, but not before he ditches the pinstripes and raids Spooner's wardrobe for a more suitable jacket, while the wrestler is away.

At The Grange, puffing on a huge cigar, Rigsby tries turning on the charm towards Miss Jones, but loses out to Phillip on the first dance. Rigsby's annoyance at his lodger for not taking the hint, and leaving the way open for him to pursue Miss Jones, is quickly replaced by fright when Spooner - who hates anyone borrowing his clothes - arrives at the restaurant.

While Rigsby hides behind a menu, Spooner spots Alan wearing his favourite bow tie, and rips it from around his neck. Thinking he's escaped the attention of the wrestler, Rigsby continues with the objective of the evening, and invites Miss Jones to waltz, but trouble brews when Spooner confronts him about wearing his suit, and ends up ripping the sleeves off. To top it all, Rigsby is landed with a whopping bill, and thrown off the premises. Not a birthday to remember for Miss Jones, who is taken home by Phillip, while Rigsby and Alan end up with a bag of chips from the take-away.
