This was 1963, but they managed to put this in...When they were getting in to Hawthorne's jeep, Ethel Merman grabs a cactus plant, "Where should I put this?"
Milton Berle rolls his eyes and mutters, "oh boy"...subtle yet crude joke...
I remember seeing this scene as a kid and not understanding it. I just thought it was Mrs. Marcus being so dumb that made Russell roll his eyes like that. Years later I got the implication.
shareSince it's really a double entendre, I wouldn't call it an R rated joke. It's actually a triple entendre because I can think of three places to put that cactus but I wouldn't choose either one for the sweet Ethel Merman or her rotten character. Lol
