All right, the customer service in this hardware store

was so impressive, it actually made shooting difficult.

There were a few times

that a customer approached me with a question,

and before I could start my trick,

a real employee would swoop in and help them.

But, thankfully, we still got these people.

[ Indistinct conversations ]

Hey. How are you?

Fine. How are you?

I am returning these for my boss.

Okay.

He needs one that's 12 feet, not two that equal 12 feet.

Oh, oh. You follow me?

Okay, okay.

So, you've got two 6-foot extension cords.

You want a 12-foot extension cord.

-Yes. -Okay. Um...

You know, these are, uh, these are interchangeable.

Yeah. He's really specific.

[ Chuckling ] Is he really?

No, I mean, like, that's 6 foot.

I mean, they're 6 and 6 together.

They make 12 if you plug them together...

It does. Right.

...but it's really -- he wants one.

Oh, okay.

Well, you don't have to plug them together, you know.

You could...

Here, you could line them up like this.

Here. Hold that. Yeah.

If they're lined up...

Yeah. These are the ones...

So, they're both -- Yeah, they both equal 6 feet.

Right.

So, tell him you twist these together like this...

Okay.

...and you don't have to lock it in,

'cause they have pressure points on it,

'cause they're universal.

So you want to squeeze those together.

Okay.

Yeah. And you --

You'll feel it kind of snap in, and then they'll be...

Huh?

What did you just do?

Well, this can be a 12-foot, 'cause it's interchangeable.

And then you can use this for whatever you need it for.

You know what I mean?

This -- people just use to,

like, plug in a phone or something,

and then that'll be -- that's 12 feet.

Yeah, they're all interchangeable.

♪♪

It pulls.

I'm not crazy. You just had two cords.

This is 12 feet now.

Right?

You said you didn't want two 6-feet.

6 foot and 6 foot.

How did you do that?

Michael: They're interchangeable.

It's a universal interchangeable cord.

Because what happens is,

if you plug two cords in together,

like a 6-foot and a 6-foot, and something pulls on it,

that's gonna unplug. Okay.

So that's why you want a full 12-foot one

without any breaks in it,

so that, if someone pulls on it,

it's not gonna snap in the middle.

Okay.

So you just the one 12.

Okay. Yeah.

So, however you want it --

you can do it as a 12, or you can do it as two 6-feet.

Okay. So...

And if you need any more, you just add them on.

Okay. Yeah.

So...

[ Indistinct conversations, laughter in distance ]

Is one 12-foot what you want?

Yeah. Okay. So, yeah.

[ Chuckles ] No, I'm gonna do good.

I'm gonna do good. My dad was a keysmith.

So, here, would you hold that just like that?

I'm gonna look and make sure

we got that measured up there nicely.

If you look here, it curves in like that,

so we got one, two,

then two little guys, and that one.

And if you don't cut it right, you know,

if you try and do this and it doesn't get cut right,

Yeah.

...someone might think it's finished,

but I actually burned my finger to pull it off.

Totally worth it.

A machine can't do that like that.

How'd you do that?

My dad taught me how to do it that way.

It's the original way that they would make keys.

It was -- It was an art.

That's not electric.

No. No. Hand-done.

My dad's got carpal tunnel

[ Scraping ]

That doesn't sound like anything.

You know, I love working here.

I get to learn about some crazy things.

Like our boss, Rick, just found this,

and he was trying to get them to remake this,

and nobody is interested in remaking it.

What is it?

Oh, this is -- this is an old de-nutter

that they made in the '70s.

What is a de-nutter?

Either of you guys have peanut allergies or...?

-No. -No?

Well, a lot of people come here, they have allergies.

Have peanut allergies.

So we have, um... Here.

Actually, well, if you don't have peanut allergies,

you should taste this here.

-I want to try it. -You want to try it? Yeah.

They're homemade chocolate-covered peanuts.

Want one there? Yum!

I'm gonna pass, thanks. You're gonna pass?

Yeah, sorry. I'm gonna...

But here, I'll show you.

You know, obviously, there's a little...

You know, you can see the little peanut inside

at the center of it.

So, the de-nutter was a product made in the '70s that --

the inventor's son had a peanut allergy.

Looks like a salad spinner.

Well, you know, before there were salad spinners,

there was the de-nutter, and it didn't --

A salad spinner was actually made off of this design.

So, what you can do with this, which is great --

and for our customers, we use it all the time --

I'll put in two big scoops

of our chocolate-covered peanuts here.

And just like the salad-spinner design...

♪♪

Spin it.

And then you know when it's ready.

Pops up. You see that?

See them all in there? Yeah.

Lookit.

So, now those guys --

those guys are hollow,

and the peanuts are separated.

What?! You're kidding me.

Yeah. Yeah.

How did that happen?

Well, it separates them, so now the peanuts --

But how -- how did it get out of there without...

-That's... -What?!

I know. Oh, my God.

There is sorcery at play. [ Laughs ]

Yeah. So, it gets the -- it gets the nuts right out

without breaking through the chocolate.

That's not possible.

Yeah, the metal base --

there's, like, iron in peanuts,

and it's something with the way it spins,

and it gets them through, so...

What?

That's exactly what I thought

when he was showing me how to do this.

I was like, "Give me a break."

And then I'm like, "Okay, I'm doing it."

And now, do you know how many people come in daily and say --

you know, they'll bring a peanut butter sandwich.

"Can you put it in the spinner, put it in the spinner?"

But, like... A peanut butter sandwich?

Yeah, it'll separate it to just the jelly, the bread --

and, well, the oil.

It's a little -- I don't know why people eat it,

but it's like having jam bread, you know.

But my boss was trying to get them --

you know, get in touch with these people and say,

"Can you remake them?"

They're not interested in remaking it

because they sell so many non-peanut products specially...

Right. ...that they lose money

by having people have the ability

to just de-nut products at home.

Can I, like, pick one of these up and look at it?

Yeah, sure. 'Cause I'm just so...

How could a peanut have gotten out of there

without busting that thing open?

I don't get it. Yeah.

[ Chuckling ] I'm so confused!

The physics of it doesn't seem...

No, he just... Oh.

-[ Chuckling ] Yeah. -I just don't even understand.

You know, if I was --

What are you gonna do with these now, 'cause they're empty?

Well, we have people who will come in and --

Is there a re-nutter?

-Can you put them back in? -That's a good idea.

[ Laughter ] That is a really good idea.

Maybe if they had it spin the other way,

you put the nuts on the bottom and put it --

that would be...

But that was weird 'cause the nuts actually went --

were on the other side of this basket.

Yeah.

You know, you -- the chocolate has to be

completely free of all dust, nut oils, and everything.

How did those even fit through there?

That's what I don't understand.

Aah!
