Pretty ludicrous film which profiles the Millers fight about what should go into their new home, with the contractor Mr Webb, in the middle of the arguement. Mrs Miller wants wall to wall carpeting, while Mr Miller wants to spend the money on good sturdy sewage pipes. The son goes outside (obviously to get away from the bickering Millers) and conveniently falls into the trench where the sewer pipe is being installed! Luckily, he's not injured, and Mrs Miller and the pipe installer start this strictly non-sexual-no-entendre-intended conversation about laying pipe. Soon she's convinced, and runs back to say she's changed her mind.. problem is, the husband has too... Whew! Reccomended!
