I DUNNO'. I WAS TAKING A SHOWER AND... |
| LUCKY: |
...WHOA! WHOA! WHOA! WHO TOLD YOU YOU COULD TAKE A SHOWER? |
| HOMEOWNER: |
...UH, I TAKE ONE EVERY DAY. |
| LUCKY: |
...UH. |
| HOMEOWNER: |
Y'KNOW LIKE BRUSHING YOUR TEETH OR DOING THE DISHES OR... |
| LUCKY: |
...YOU DO THAT STUFF EVERY DAY? YOU CRAZY? NO WONDER YOUR PIPES POPPED. THEY'RE PROBABLY POLYBUTYLENE PLASTIC. |

SO NOW WHAT DO I DO? |
| LUCKY: |
OKAY, DO THE DISHES AT THE GAS STATION, BRUSH YOUR TEETH AT THE OFFICE AND WHATEVER YOU DO, DON'T FLUSH! |
| HOMEOWNER: |
GREAT. |
| LUCKY: |
AND REMEMBER, PLASTIC'S GOOD FOR TOYS BUT WHEN IT COMES TO PLUMBING, COPPER IS PROPER. |
| HOMEOWNER: |
THIS STINKS LUCKY. |
| LUCKY: |
OH YOU SHOULD TALK, "MR. NO SHOWER." |
