Today, before we enter
Cincinnati in tonight's show,

I'd like to bring you up-to-date

On dr. And mrs. Bennett
Beltner from miami, florida.

As you recall,

We visited the good dentist
And his family in his home

On last week's show,
And while in his home,

Our cameras discovered
Several vials of demerol.

Demerol is a fun
Little painkiller,

And while it's alright
For the dentist

To have it in his office,

It's not alright for him
To have it in the garage.

So we're sorry to report

That because of our
Journalistic commitment

To tell it like it is,

Dr. Beltner will be
Arraigned this week

In dade county court
On felony possession

Of a controlled drug.

Look, it's unfortunate.
But it's real.

And speaking of "Real," elaine,

What about
Tonight's real family?

To hide anything?

At first, not "Black."

Oh, uh, I-I didn't mean it, no.

Phil: does your family
Watch a lot of television?

We do watch a little.

Elaine: are you careful what
You allow the children to watch?

Yes, indeed, we are.

Elaine: for instance?

Well, we only allow
Them to watch wholesome,

Family entertainment.

Elaine: like what?

Uh, well, "The little
House on the prairie."

Now that's a fine,
Wholesome show.

It's about blind
Children out west,

And every week they have a fire,

Or someone gets
An incurable disease.

We enjoy it very much, uh huh.

Man on tv: ms. Stolcey is fat.

Herb said that?

Elaine: uh huh.

Well, you know,
I-I go to herb, uh,

For advice, as-as-as we all do.

He's just a good man to talk to.

I would say that herb
Tarlek is a hard worker,

A loyal husband, and
All around fine person.

Phil: we're gonna stop
The tape right there

because we want you to
Remember mr. Travis's last comment.

"Herb tarlek is a hard worker,

loyal husband, and
All around fine person."

remember that because something
Pretty interesting is about to happen.

Elaine: this is venus flytrap,
Popular nighttime dj.

We're all just one happy family.

I guess I've known herb
All about two years.

Yeah, two years now.

Elaine: venus, herb tells
Us that you and he attend

naacp meetings together.

Phil: is that true?

Yeah, we hang out down
There all the time... The naacp.

Elaine: venus, describe herb.

Herb is a hard worker,
A loyal husband,

And a all around fine person.

Phil: there is that exact
Same description again!

Elaine: this is bailey quarters,

a member of the wkrp news staff.

Phil: get a load of this.

Um, herb tarlek
Is a... Loyal worker.

No! He's a loyal husband.

Um, he's a loyal
Husband, um... Um.

He's a loyal...
Elaine: les nessman,

news director of wkrp
For the past seven years.

I won this one in 1975

When I broke the big
Soybean shortage story.

Now, over here... Over here...

Phil: I say les... what?

Phil: what's herb tarlek like?

Hard worker, loyal husband,
All around fine person.

Now, this... This is the
Coveted silver sow award.

I'm sure your viewers
Would love to touch it!

Hard worker, loyal
Husband, fine person.

He's a loyal,
All around... Uh...

Elaine: station manager,
Arthur carlson.

mr. Carlson,
Describe herb tarlek.

About that tall.

It's a joke. I-I was
Just, just kidding.

You can cut that
Out if you like.

Edit that sucker
Right on outta there.

No, no seriously, herb
Tarlek is a hard worker,

Loyal husband, uh,
All around fine person.

Hard worker, loyal husband,
And all around fine person.

All around fine person.

There! I did it!

Ha-ha, how about that?

Well, you don't have
To be mike wallace

To know what, audience, I mean,

What are these people doing?

All: they're lying.

They're what?

Audience: they're lying.

Well, I wouldn't go that far,

But it's obvious to me, elaine,

That-that herb's coworkers
Seem to be covering up for him.

That's right phil and
When this happens,

We start digging
For the real facts.

- right after this.
- right.

Elaine: we pick up our story
Of the tarleks the next day

when we went
Shopping with lucille.

Phil: it was time to
Start digging a little.

Oh, I pick up the food
Here in these aisles

And then I pay
For it over there.

And these carts
Make it quite easy.

Elaine: what about prices?

Oh, that's how you
Know what to pay!

Phil: no, I think elaine meant,

are the prices too
High these days?

Yes, they are.

Phil: say, lucille, would you
Say herb is a loyal husband?

Oh, I, yes. Why do you ask?

Phil: well, there are some

very attractive women
Where herb works.

Yes, I think jennifer had a
Crush on herb at one time,

But that's all over with now.

Elaine: jennifer had
A crush on herb,

not the other way around?

Uh-uh.

Elaine: doesn't that sound
A little hard to believe?

Well, oh, yes, it does.

But that's the way it happened.

I think my hand is frozen
To this box of ice cream.

Elaine: that must be painful.

Yes, it is.

I what?

Phil: lucille said at one time,

you had a crush on herb.

Well yes. We're all
Pretty crazy about herb.

But that was a long time ago.

Phil: did anything happen?

No. Trust me.

Elaine: what did
You see in herb?

It was his wardrobe,

And he has an artificial leg.

Phil: johnny, what about herb

and your receptionist,
Jennifer marlowe?

What about 'em?

Phil: what's the real
Story there, johnny?

Real story?

- you want the real story?
- you bet.

Well, uh, in the first place,

Herb's name isn't
Tarlek, it's nietzsche.

He's directly related to the
Famous nihilist philosopher.

See, he came to america

To prove through the use
Of polyester that god is dead.

And I think he succeeded
Admirably, don't you?

Phil: nietzsche?

Yeah. Herbert r.
Nietzsche junior.

It is more, uh,

How much tape you
Got in that thing?

I can go on and on you know.

Herb hasn't got time
For that sort of thing.

He works too hard. We all do.

Elaine: kids, is daddy
A hard worker?

Both: yeah.

Elaine: how do you know?

Well, sometimes
He works so hard,

He comes home for
Lunch and sleeps all day.

He sleeps all day?

Phil: that's right.

No, that's impossible.

You see-see, herb's
Out making sales calls.

Elaine: who are some of
Herb's biggest clients?

Well, there's red wigglers
- the cadillac of worms.

They sell live bait.

And then there's

Hendrik muller's world
Of oriental exports.

Also, herb comes up with some
Very fine promotional ideas.

He did the "Dancing
Ducks promotion."

Elaine: what's that bailey?

Well, it's sort of a tie-in with
Hunters department store.

Um, herb put some
Ducks in the window, uh.

It was a real cute idea!

And the ducks, while they
Would do a little dance,

Elaine: what?

They-they would dance.

Apparently, herb taught
The ducks to dance, I guess,

I don't know anymore about that.

Elaine: this is
Vargus enswiller,

head of the cincinnati office of
The prevention of cruelty to animals.

Mr. Tarlek had placed some ducks

In the window of
Hunters department store

As an advertising gimmick
With his radio station.

At noon, 1, 2, and 3 pm,

The ducks would
Do a little dance,

Sort of a jitterbug.

Elaine: mr. Tarlek had
Trained the ducks?

No. The ducks danced
On a little stage

Made of aluminum foil.

We discovered that under that,

Mr. Tarlek had
Placed a hot plate.

He would turn it up, and
The ducks would dance,

And he would turn it off and the
Ducks would go on about their business.

You know the interesting
Thing about this case was that

Two thanksgivings ago,

This man tarlek and
Another man named...

Carlson, were cited
For throwing live turkeys

Out of a helicopter
To their deaths.

We, uh... We didn't mean
To kill those turkeys.

It was an accident.

We thought turkeys could fly.

Phil: what about the ducks?

Should we call a lawyer?

And then he took away
All herb the third's dolls,

And told me to
Keep my mouth shut

Or he'd break my arm.

No, honey. It's just
Daddy's way of playing.

Now, look, why don't
You two go watch tv.

Come on, now! Come on!

Watch anything you want.

Elaine: lucille, herb,
What about your sex life?

Oh, uh, wait a minute, uh,
Uh, I'd like to stop now.

This isn't fun anymore.

This is not what I
Thought it would be.

Phil: uh, I thought you
Wanted to be on television.

uh, we have a contract.

Herb doesn't wanna talk to
You anymore. He's gone to bed.

Phil: lucille, what's 11
Years of marriage mean?

I mean what's it like?

Well, I don't know.

We have this house and
We have the children.

Phil: has your marriage
Turned out the way

you dreamed it would?

No... No, it hasn't.

Has yours?

Elaine: lucille have you
Ever thought about divorce?

Absolutely not.

Elaine: how come?

I don't know.

Perhaps I'm just
Not clever enough

Or smart enough
To put it into words,

But... I know that
My herb loves me.

Elaine: and why
Do you love herb?

what's the main reason?

He's got a great body.

Elaine: except for
The missing leg.

Excuse me.

Phil: herb, weren't you arrested

once for some
Kind of moral thing?

It's a complete lie.

I don't even know the
Names of those girls.

Phil: oh, I thought
You had been.

Seriously, phil,

I think I'm having a complete
Mental collapse under here.

Elaine: lucille, does herb
Regress like this often?

No, not like this.

You know, I-I-I don't
Think it's fair to you guys

To make it soun
Like I'm hiding things.

Elaine: you're hiding now!

- oh, yes I'm...
- daddy go nuts?

Not now, sweetheart.

Herb: not now,
Sweetheart. Not yet.

Phil: come on, herb, we're
Just trying to get to the truth!

Truth? You mean what's real?

Phil: that's right.

I'll tell you what's real.

My life is boring.

But you can't show that
Because this is a tv show.

You gotta dig up a lot of
Dirt so you can get the ratings,

So you don't get
Cancelled. Now that's real.

Elaine: obviously,
We've hit some kind of...

Hang on. I may have a
Couple of problems here.

You know, I don't
Make a lot of money.

My-my-my-my son likes dolls,

You know, I wish he
Didn't, but he does.

My undershorts are torn.

I like to drink beer.

And sure I mistreated
A couple of ducks,

But, phil, deep down inside,
I like ducks. I'm all poor.

Phil: now, this is real.

No, this is not real!

Nothing on that tube is real!

Not even in, not
Even in the news!

Now, now, get outta here!

Take to... Just get outta
Here and stay outta my home!

Phil: well, elaine, that's
One of the most interesting

real families we've ever had.

Elaine: phil, I'd have to
Say that as far as ripping...

My father is a hard
Worker, loyal husband,

And all around fine person.

Phil: oh!

Elaine: hmm. Hmm...
Wkrp in cincinnati

we'll be back after this.

Well we have another
Week of "Real families."

And what about
The tarleks, phil?

Is herb really still mad at us?

Well, if he was,
He isn't anymore.

Not after we offered to
Fly him and the entire family

To hollywood, all expenses paid.

Ladies and gentlemen,
Here they are!

How are you doing
Pal? Still mad?

- no.
- of course not.

And I'll tell you why.

Because almost anybody
Will do almost anything

To get their picture on
Television, right herby?

Right, phil.

In fact, I'll bet

If you were willing
To shoot yourself

In the foot with a rifle,

We could get you
On, "That's incredible."

Really, h-h-how
Would I go about...

You see what I mean.

That's it for tonight,
Ladies and gentlemen.

Watch us next week
On "Real families"

Average red-headed housewife.

Then it's no good.
