Eskimo Shoes
Air date TBA · 30m
Richard has a new product for his mail-order catalog to do, and has to test it. It's eskimo shoes that are supposed to keep your feet warm, but it being August and 90 degrees, how would they test it? Lizzy and Duane had parties to go on Saturday, the day he wanted to test them, and they said they'd go if he would take them somewhere cold enough to test them. Ethel talked with the butcher and he said they could use their meat locker on Saturday after they closed. She announced it and the teens are upset when it sticks to what they said, but do it. Duane slams the door, and it jammed shut. They tried several different things, but nothing worked. They all got a little closer while inside, then finally Ehtel 'snapped' out and let them all out, while putting her clothes on a piece of meat and J.J. distracted them. They were all happy to go.
