In this usual hilarious episode of Life of Riley, Riley is looking forward to his Saturday afternoon at home with his family. However, he arrives home only to find that they all have other plans. In his effort to keep his family at home he gets a huge $2300 TV by deception, on a free 10 day trial -“the sign said if you don’t like it you can give it back in 10 days, and I guarantee that as much as we love it we ain’t gonna like it”. 10 days is just enough time for his daughter to impress her boyfriend watching the next big game, but the fun begins when the TV store call in the middle of the match to say they’re going to have to collect the TV right now as Riley’s credit ain’t good!
