Episode 2704

Picture	Segment 	Description
 	SCENE 1 	Mr. Handford finds that the Hooper's Store pay phone isn't working and even ate his quarter. Oscar and Grundgetta argue over who gets to use it next, looking forward to being unable to make a call and losing their money. They bristle at the notion that they'd have to take turns, but do so anyway and complain about the phone. "I'd better find someone to fix this phone fast," Mr. Handford surmises.

Ruby instead believes that changing the sign to read "This telephone is fixed" would do just the trick. She uses it as her latest experiment and finds the phone still doesn't work. The Ed Norton-esque repairman (David Rudman), however, comes in and reads Ruby's sign then leaves, assuming the problem has been solved.
