Jack Benny and his team portray their version of Warner Brother’s film Captain Horatio Hornblower with Jack in the lead role and Mary playing the part of Lady Barbara who toward the end of the sketch is delirious with yellow fever. While Benny (Hornblower) is nursing her through her crisis she falls madly in love with him. Mary bets she knows why suggesting that while she was delirious Benny looked like Gregory Peck!
