The premise
Here’s the bit.
Mr. and Mrs. Loud are delighted that their daughters Jean and Joan finally have dates, and they say so, like everything else, at the top of their lungs. Jean's soft-spoken date Rick Phillips sits through the family's booming small talk, including a family tragedy recounted at full volume, while Joan's date Kevin turns up from his airport ground-crew shift still wearing ear protectors. Once the parents go upstairs the whole house hears their lovemaking, the girls loudly praise the joint the boys have brought, and the parents haul their daughters aside for a scolding meant to be private that Rick hears every word of. A police officer finally arrives to ask the family to keep it down, explaining that nobody complained; he simply heard them while driving by.
The funny people

Say it with us
Highly quotable.
We used to have three. Our eldest daughter died in a ski accident.
They seem to talk, you know, like extra loud, like really, really loud.
Nobody. I was driving by.
