The Illuminati: Did you know that Lucy and Ethel were actually sort of in a relationship? It wasn’t really anything much, but they kind of had a weird sexual tension that was lesbian. And in the show it just sort of doesn’t really amount anything because they’re mostly straight and they actually just decide to be friends. In the show, as it is written, they kind of just end up being friends. And actually, Lucy develops other friendships with other women when they move and Ethel I think probably moves on eventually too and develop other friendships and they just never do anything other than just be friends.
It’s just kind of a relationship that never really takes off. but it is because she loves Ricky so much and because Fred is somehow able to capture Ethel‘s heart and some way that is probably very complicated. 
We just told Lacey that outside of this blog and she’s extremely overwhelmed, but it’s not because she’s a lesbian in anyway it’s just extremely disturbing to her. And to be honest with you, we can’t figure out why.
Lacey: I don’t know either.
I think it makes me mad. Because I thought the oven could just be that close. I didn’t realize that wasn’t possible unless if they’re in love?? 
God: No! They can be!
Lacey: I know that, but at the same time it’s like I’m trying to process this and it’s extremely disturbing. I think it’s just really hard. I don’t understand how that’s not a betrayal of my trust.
I don’t appreciate people sneaking things in like that. And I have a feeling that the actresses themselves probably felt something for each other. And I do not appreciate being lied to.
The Illuminati: We forced Lucille Ball to help us assassinate JFK. I’ve been told by someone in the CIA. Because people found out about their relationship and they felt the same way back then Lacey.
They felt that it was bizarre the way that they chose to pretend and fool people. And it was part of the reason both those marriages broke-up. They didn’t want us to know that though because it didn’t last and it wasn’t something that they were happy about. They didn’t feel as pretty as other women and it was really painful for them because they just felt like they were really ugly together. And they tried to make it work on the Lucy show. Lucy was brilliant and daring and smart and Ethel was not a stupid woman completely.
But they really just couldn’t handle the thought of being together because they just felt ugly. They just felt too ugly.
A lesbian: I don’t like that, that can’t be what it is.
The Illuminati: Why?
A lesbian: Because women aren’t that weak or that stupid ever there’s no way that two women would ever say to themselves I’m ugly and so are you we can’t be together.
