The back of Ernie's phone has no line attached!!! This must be early 70's; there are no modular connectors on the beige phone. At that time the handset was hardwired to the phone. Also, the cord from the phone to the wall was hardwired both on the phone and the wall.
Which episode is this from?

In the late 90s, Ernie would've stole Bert's phone line to be on AOL while he talked to Grover on a cordless. Would've pwned Bert then as well.

Bert comes up with a plan to ease his life = backfire. It never fails.

Bert is expecting a call from a "bottle cap collector". Goes well with pigeons and paper clips! :)

How do you come up with these one-liners? They're so clever.

Never mind that. How did the bottle cap collector get his number?

When I was a kid, I thought, how did Ernie know which number to dial?

You're right sawing14s. You wouldn't see something like this today. Today, Bert and Ernie could just buy cell phones to keep in touch.

Yeah, actually I can see a skit opening up today with Ernie on his Razr talking to Grover, then him folding it up with both hands to talk to Bert.
