The great Amos and Andy/Vic and Sade mystery!

I was doing some research today for my Vic and Sade websites and came across a pay-per-view article that I bought (and therefore cannot post.)  The article clearly states that Paul Rhymer, the writer for Vic and Sade, was asked to write an episode of the Amos and Andy show, which he did.  The article then goes on to state "but it sounded too much like [a] Vic and Sade [episode.]"  And it implies it never did air (but it does NOT say this.)

A little further research shows the following from the J. David Goldin Index (https://www.google.com/search?q=goldin+amos+and+andy+rhymer&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a] That first Google entry there is a 404 error and does not exist but it appears that it did one time exist in the Goldin index.  It also implies that there was a Amos and Andy show written by Rhymer and included at least Vic, Sade and Uncle Fletcher from Vic and Sade - [or so it seems to imply this.]

Further research does not show this episode in any log I have found (it may or may not be called "The Jubularies" or something similar.

So what gives?  Are we missing a Vic and Sade/Amos and Andy oddity?
