    First, Wilkins tortures Wontkins on Wilkins Coffee and more,
    Then, Wontkins hires Mack to torture Kermit, who had nothing to do with it, on McGarry's Sausages and Claussen's Bread,
    Lastly, Kermit hires Suzy to torture Mack on using the telephone directory.

    Suzy: "The boss says you have to use the Telephone Directory for dialing information."

    Wilkins: What ya doing?
    Wontkins: Making Wilkins' Coffee.
    Wilkins: Did you mix it with boiling water?
    Wontkins: No!
    (The crowd boos and throws vegetables at Wontkins, much to Wontkins' dismay)
    Wilkins: If you mix it boiling water, everyone will love you.

    • @jrmcferren
      @jrmcferren 3 роки тому

      It depended on the telephone equipment at the central office, your local exchange codes, and what you actually dialed. Essentially, you would make the telephone equipment do strange things. You could get strange warning tones or even the wrong number by omitting the 1. The purpose of the 1 was to tell the equipment that you wanted to access the long distance equipment.
