  A Recipe for Disaster
  Eugene: Mr. Rathbone?
  Rathbone: Oh, Eugene! Oh, Eugene, I saw the circuit box. It looks real nice.
  Eugene: Oh, well, thank you sir, but...
  Rathbone: I just have one more favor to ask. Would you go out and unhook the generator?
  Eugene: Mr. Rathbone, I really must protest! I don't know if I hooked up everything correctly or not!
  Rathbone: Well, what do you mean? You turned the overheads on just yesterday.
  Eugene: Well, yes, but nothing else. And I'm not truly certain about those.
  Rathbone: They're enough to get us past the building inspector, Eugene. He just wants to see things hooked up and looking real nice. Nobody expects miracles.
  Eugenie: That's just it. The overheads maybe a fluke! Once full power comes on...
  Rathbone: Eugene! Listen, you should have more confidence in your abilities. You are a brilliant young man. Of course, you hooked up everything properly!
