- GoofsThis is at least the third story line where various characters (George and Dick in this story) call the water heater the "hot water heater." There is no need to heat hot water. It is simply a water heater, not to be confused with a hot water bottle.

Where's Elmer Gantry When You Need Him
When a man held in a Russian gulag can't be on Dick's show due to technical difficulties, out of work and depressed Michael jumps in to doo the show. Because he has nothing to say, he spouts some homespun philosophy, including forget about it and smile. The whole town, which, of course, is a pack of knuckleheads, sees him as a kind of messiah. He takes on the adulation and creates a new persona. People get all excited when they see him in person, so he decides to do a sort of evangelical thing with a white suit and a giddy smile. The problem is that with only three thing to say, he doesn't seem to be able to help people. It's entertaining for Michael's showmanship and panache. And, as usual, the townsfolk are pretty funny.
