    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      The loud applause heard when the subway goes into the tunnel is because there had been prior shows which featured relatively poor simulations of an actual subway, and the audience was amazed with the effect the show's art department had managed to achieve.
    • Goofs
      Oscar tells Felix he's never been to the Statue of Liberty, but he took the Princess of Lichtenberg (Jean Simmons) there in the third show of Season 3.
    • Quotes
      • Felix Unger: [Felix has made a hand puppet out of his handkerchief] Hello, I'm Harvey Hanky! And what are you doing today sir?
      • Oscar Madison: Dying of embarrassment.
