א גוט וועטשערע


Huxtable's meal begins with a bang when the lights fuse. Felix, who is not practical, attempts a repair which blows the mains. They eat in darkness and Sister Veracitude tells them of her decision. She is to establish the 
Cruxicogentian Elocution and Grammar centre, for children whose parents are distressed about the epidemic of High Rising Terminals (AQI). Frab protests that this is unwarranted interference in  people's language choice. The others disagree, but aren't sure if he isn't asking a question (except Hedre who thinks they are talking about Hormone Replacement Therapy). When Ethel and Frida arrive to mend the electricity meter, everyone relaxes and the evening progresses well, with much drinking of vodka (and strangely Marsala Vergine e/o Soleras).
