the canine mutiny. Scene missing?

After the comic book guy kicks Bart out of his store because he notices Bart's credit card is fake, Bart then picks up a "Covet House" mail order magazine.

He looks at it and says "Our phone doesn't go up to 800, unless..." And the next scene is him receiving packages from the Covet House. Well, what happened? Was something cut out for syndication?

I think there's a scene missing here like Bart flipping to the mail order form or asking Lisa to make a phone call for him.

Any ideas?

It's a 'cut-to'... in other words, you're supposed to laugh at what you *don't* see! (i.e. Bart discovering how to dial 800 on a phone)

HTH :)

the joke is that bart ingeniously figures out a clever way to dial 800 on a phone that doesn't go up to 800 (i.e., by pressing 8-0-0).

There have been cases where people failed to get emergency assistance because there was no eleven - thus they could not dial nine-eleven for help. That's when nine-one-one became the preferred way to say 911.

"These go to eleven".

As long as we are discussing "The Caine Mutiny", what was the nickname for Lee Marvin's character in that movie? Oops, you are discussing "The Canine Mutiny", an episode of OFF.

In "The Caine Mutiny", Lee Marvin was "Glugash", and his nickname was "Stew Pot".

Gadzooks. I am so confused. "Stew Pot" was one of the sailors in that movie about WWII in the South Pacific. But I can't remember the name of the movie.

I washed that movie right out of my hair. My girl back home likes it, though. Some enchanted evening, we may watch it again together.
