In 1956, “The Honeymooners”. Ralph is certain that finally, finally, his dream of striking it rich can come true — all for a song. He has been selected as a contestant on the TV quiz show The $99,000.00 Answer. Although his brief, first appearance isnʹt auspicious — heʹs so nervous, he explains “I brive a dus” for a living, and when asked his wifeʹs name, replies “Mrs. Kramden” — he selects popular songs as his category, envisioning a rosy future. “Weʹll be living on Park Avenue,” he assures Alice, “and wait 'til you see how different this furniture looks when itʹs in a Park Avenue apartment.” He rents a piano, buys up a sheaf of sheet music and involves almost his entire apartment building in his crash course. This, of course, includes boon companion — and piano man — Ed Norton, who has the irritating habit of playing the same strange, haunting vamp every time he goes through a song. Come the big night, Ralph is primed, telling the showʹs emcee, Herb Norris, that heʹs going to go every step of the way. Fine, says Norris, and reads Ralph his first question for $100. “Who is the composer of 'Swanee River'?” while offstage a piano strikes up the irritating vamp he has heard all week.
