Pinky and the Brain Tongue Twister

I remember seeing this as a kid, when it first came out in the early 90s.

Brilliant.

0:00-1:11


KS: I am honoured by your visit.  Let me show you our assembly line.
First, sheets of sheer synthetic sheepskin are slit into several Kicky-Sack shoe shapes in 
shapely shoe sizes by six sitting sheet slitters.  

B: I only see five sitting sheet slitters. 

KS: The sixth sitting sheet slitter's sick.  His son Sammy's subbing 'til the sick sixth sitting
sheet slitter's back, sitting pretty.

P: You're not the sheet slitter?

S: No, I'm the sheet slitter's son.  

P:  Well.... You keep on slitting sheets until the sheet slitter comes. Haheheheh!  Whooohaaah.
  
 [View of a machine labelled "Sheet Slitter Shoe Shaper".]
  
KS: The Shoe Shaper then shapes the slit synthetic sheepskin sheets,
and shoots out shoes through the chute.

KS: Now, this is Mr. Plunkett, the new khaki sock plucker.  (I had to fire our previous sock plucker.
He had a bit of an attitude.)

B:  So, you sacked the cocky khaki Kicky-Sack sock plucker?

KS:  The second cocky khaki Kicky-Sack sock plucker I sacked since the sixth sitting sheet
slitter got sick.
  
[Lights dim. Machine whirs and slows down.]
  
KS: Whoops!  Don't worry; just an electrical problem.  One of the Kicky-Sack sack pickers will have
to flick the plug.  

P: Not the khaki sock plucker?

KS: Oh, my, no!  The Kicky-Sack sack pickers flick the plug. The khaki sock plucker can't reach
the socket over the latex child perambulator fenders we use to line the treadmill.

B: It might make more sense to have the sixth sitting sheet slitter's son flick the plug, if the sack
pickers and the sock pluckers are behind the rubber baby buggy bumpers.
  
[Sammy flicks the plug.  Everything whirs back up.]
 
KS: I never thought of that! 


1:11-1:41
 
B: Now, Pinky, here is the plan.  Remember, every step must be performed with precision!
 
You must slit the sixth sick sheet slitter's son's sheet, secure it next to the toy boat from 
the Hackensack Socko Kicky-Sack Sack Kickers' picnic in Secaucus, stretch it past 
the sack pickers' station and the sock plucker's chute, and pick a sack, pluck a sock, 
and flick the plug,so I can put the pea in the plucked sock with the picked sack for ballast 
and bounce it off the rubber baby buggy bumper, into the Parker Packard purple pewter pressure pump. 
 
Is that understood?
