Description

On June 14, 1989, in Beverly Hills, California, Gabor was accused of slapping the face of a police officer named Paul Kramer when he stopped her for a traffic violation. This episode features songs that evoke a spirit of L.A. & the absurdity of modernity.



Broadbent: ... I find the world quite good enough for me -- rather a jolly place, in fact.

Keegan (looking at him with quiet wonder):  You are satisfied?

Broadbent:  As a reasonable man, yes.  I see no evils in the world -- except of course, natural evils -- that cannot be remedied by freedom, self-government, and English institutions.  I think so, not because I am an Englishman, but as a matter of common sense.

Keegan:  You feel at home in the world then? Broadbent:  Of course.  Don't you?

Keegan:  (from the very depths of his nature): No.
