Picture	Segment 	Description
 	SCENE 1 	Gordon notices a string tied to a basket hanging in front of his window. Mr. Hooper explains that he has installed the "Hooper Super Automatic Remote-Control Elevator," a push-button dumbwaiter to carry grocery items to Gordon's apartment. It doesn't turn out to be as time-saving as he had intended, since Mr. Hooper has to keep leaving to get the controls some gasoline, a place to sit, and an umbrella to protect it from rain. The device does work, but Mr. Hooper forgets to put the milk in the basket - so he hands it to Gordon.
