SCENE 1 | Bob finds Oscar about to lead the Grouchketeers in a workout session he calls "Oscarcise." He calls himself the "Grouch Jane Fonda," then puts on a dance music record and everyone counts backwards from 11, completing the workout. Bob doesn't understand, so Oscar explains this is an exercise to strengthen an important body part - the mouth, so they can yell "Have a rotten day!" Bob spoils the fun by pointing out they also learned to count backwards from 11. |

SCENE 2 | At Hooper's Store, Gordon and Susan ask why Telly is pushing a plated hamburger back and forth. Telly explains that before David left him in charge, he was told to "push The Big Dave," a new burger of his own creation. Susan explains what "pushing" means in business terms. Telly urges the two to order it, but they both feel it's much too big; they order two "Little Daves" instead. Telly frets because this is not what David told him, but he gets an idea to cut the burger in half for them. They would rather have a freshly cooked burger rather than the one Telly's been pushing for two hours. They each give conflicting ways they'd like their burger done, forcing Telly to go with their "Little Daves" idea instead. |
