Senator Howell Tankerbell interrogates Ole Swerdlow at a folk festival about his traditional puppet dancing performance. Tankerbell interprets the innocent folk art as "titillating" and "arousing," condemning it as lewd and shutting down the entire festival, calling it "like a pioneer porn shop." The sketch satirizes government censorship of the arts and politicians who blow harmless entertainment out of proportion to fit their moral agendas.
