[Johnny is filling in for Jennifer in handling the on-air call-in advice show when he is speaking to a caller named Patricia]
Dr. Johnny Fever: No, no, no, Patricia, you're wrong.
Patricia: Well, I just don't know what I'm going to...
Dr. Johnny Fever: [cutting Patricia off] Right, right, right, wait a second. Would you just listen to me, please.
Patricia: Uh, all right.
Dr. Johnny Fever: Okay, because you don't want to look like a fool, right? Right?
Patricia: No.
Dr. Johnny Fever: Okay. So now listen very carefully because I'm not always going to be here to help you. Okay? So you always want to start on these things from the outside. That'll lead you naturally, organically, into those inner areas, and that's where all the real action is. Okay? Now, what's furthest out is the salad fork, and the soup spoon. Then, the tea spoon, okay?
Patricia: [with a panic in her voice] What side?
Dr. Johnny Fever: On the right. Big fork is on the inside left, and the dessert spoon is above.
Patricia: [with a continued panic in her voice] Above what?
Dr. Johnny Fever: Pat, Pat, Pat, Patricia. I tell you what. Put the napkin over your head and eat with your hands. Okay we've got a lot of calls...
- Alternate versionsIn the 90's redistribution package, the voice of Joan, the woman who calls Jennifer about her philandering husband and is eventually beaten up by him, has been re-recorded by a different actress. Compared to the quiet, meek voice that was originally used, the new voice is stronger and more confident-sounding, almost inappropriately so. Perhaps this was because MTM must have lost the tapes of the original voice actress.
