12:30 SCRIPTED ABSURDITY - Investigative Interview, 1 hr.
SA asks questions regarding an add for an old set of false teeth.

SCRIPTED ABSURDITY

False Teeth for Sale

 

SA

On today's show we talk to a woman - Mary Humphries - who is selling her grannie's teeth that are supposedly still filled with precious metals.

Here's Mary's add we saw:

Grannie's Teeth. My Grannie ate a lot, I mean often. She wore out about 25 sets of false teeth. These are those, with a few loose teeth of various sizes tossed in for good measure. "Gross!" you say? Realize that Grannie may have been old and toothless but she put only the finest custom dental appliances in her mouth. I understand there is gold, platinum and silver throughout these pieces. I haven't got the time to bust them up and hunt for the precious metals. My tight schedule is your gain. Make me an offer.

SA

Mary, I don't mind telling you. The thought of owning your Grannie's ex-teeth is not that appealing. I am curious about them though.

MARY

Why, that's not nice. Grannie would have wanted someone else to get some use from her lovely used teeth. And I certainly want someone to find the precious metals within.

SA

I thought you said the teeth are all ground down - worn out.

MARY

Technically, yes. But you have to remember that that was according to Grannie's standards. It looks to my untrained eyes that the bulk of these choppers are still pretty much just like new.

SA

But, why are there so many of them?

MARY

You mean sets or teeth in each set?

SA

I mean sets, but you do pose an odd question. Are you saying that her sets of teeth had other than 32 teeth in them?

MARY

Grannie had a broad smile. She wanted her smile to be her trademark. And it was. She went with a 48-tooth setting usually. A few extra incisors and a few extra canines usually. Her smile was so great! Poor old Grannie!

SA

Huh? 48 teeth? You are kidding!

MARY

No, I am not. And Grannie wouldn't have wanted you to continue to deride her ex-dentures.

SA

Well, I mean no disrespect. I just wonder what she could have been thinking. That many teeth would be real Kennedy-esque. Is that what she was shooting for? That Joe Kennedy look, but with a big wide mouth, full of teeth?

MARY

You're despicable!

SA

All I am saying is that her teeth would only work in someone who is, A: cheap, B: nutty and/or C: has a big mouth, apparently.

MARY

Well, I wouldn't sell her teeth to you at any price. How about that?!

SA

Oh yeah? Not even for $120?

MARY

Can you put that in writing? Grannie would have wanted it in writing.
