The premise
Here’s the bit.
Pushed by his wife into honoring National Secretary Week, Mr. Tudball takes Mrs. Wiggins to lunch at the 21 Club. Her tight skirt turns sliding into the booth into an ordeal, she asks the waiter for directions to a ladies' room she has no plans to visit, and every attempt at polite conversation collapses under her literal-minded answers while Mr. Tudball keeps the double Scotches coming. A trip to powder her nose ends when she cannot find anything but a door with a woman painted on it. After she finally orders an extravagant meal, Mr. Tudball balks at the bill and heads back to the office with a parting jab, and Mrs. Wiggins promptly cancels the food and settles for a cup of coffee.

Say it with us
Highly quotable.
Why did you ask that waiter then, where's the ladies' room if you're not going to the ladies' room? — In case I ever come here again.
Like you're trying to stuff the Hindenburg into a Volkswagen.
All that's there is a door with a woman painted on it.
