'''Hugh:''' During KP or latrine duty?\\
'''Archie:''' As a soldier in the Army Air Corp, that's the only place we'd see you people.\\

!! Tropes associated with this episode:

* BornInAnElevator: The elevator car stops, a Hispanic woman goes into labor ... and this baby isn't waiting to make his entry into the world.
* ElevatorFailure: Archie is already irritated enough with having to go to the bank, and with Edith and Mike (and their usual personality quirks) in general. He's more irritated when he has to share the elevator car with a black banker, a ditzy secretary and a Hispanic couple whose female half is very, ''very'' pregnant. And then, the elevator car comes to a screeching halt, and the only thing that's going up now is Archie's blood pressure.
