THE STORY
|
Oliver is furious that for the third year in a row he has
received a $96.00 bill from The East River Van and Storage
Company.
Lisa doesn't remember what it is she stored, so Oliver demands
they send it to him. A crate arrives and it turns out to be
a genuine Latislav Stavinsky Bird Bath that Lisa had bought
for Oliver's birthday. Oliver becomes annoyed with the bird
bath as the cat scarer and the wind whistling through the
pipes keeps waking him up (the bumps on his head every time
he walks out the front door doesn't help either), and when he
finds out that the County Museum would kill for a genuine
Stavinsky, he is quick to donate the item.
Sadly, the item is a fake, however the museum agrees to take
the piece if Oliver will donate the "Karl Marx is a hothead"
Dooley Hickens which is on the crate the faux Stavinsky
arrived in.
The show ends with Lisa shocking Oliver with his replacement
birthday present...A lifesize replica of the Eifel Tower made
out of wire hangers by La Touche.
