"Lucy and Donny Osmond" rates 4 Paper Hearts out of 5

This episode demonstrates a great balance of "Here'due south Lucy" hallmarks: Celebrity Cameos, Musical Numbers, and Comedy, in this case, the cracking plot twist surrounding mistaken identity.   Lucy is still basically on the sidelines of the action due to her leg injury, allowing Lucie to take the lead.  The just frustrating thing is the creation of a "convenience" cousin (Patricia) merely for the sake of the plot.
