A commercial that has been burned into your memory

My brother and I were just talking about a sears commercial from our childhood that we still think about to this day .

Setting a small kitchen - a woman aged 25 - 35 is wearing a tank top and her brown hair is pulled back. She is sweating and ineffectively fanning herself with paper. She is distressed She sits at a table across from a man also between 25-35. He is reading a newspaper. His face is sweaty but he seems relaxed.

The air conditioner is broken.

The woman says that the man told her that he would call Sears but he has not yet called Sears She asks when he will call with panic in her voice .The man tells her that he will call today in a casual relaxed manner. The woman shrieks in response ."YOU'LL CALL NOW" She pulls the newspaper away from him preventing him ftom reading it . He smiles and says cheerfully ."I'll call now"

We see the couple again in the kitchen after some time had passed .The woman is wearing a denim full sleeve shirt .Her hair is down. She is smiling. The man is again reading the paper .The woman asks him what the weather is like. He says "another scorcher" and she grins and says "cool!"

So Sears fixed the air conditioner after the husband called (even though he didn't care if the air conditioner was fixed) because his wife yelled at / annoyed him until he did .

The question that has haunted my brother and for 25 years is - Why didn't the woman call Sears herself???? Why????

My ex LOVED this commercial, to the point where he would laugh so hard only dogs could hear his high pitched giggles. He and his twin brother would do the "They got a pepper bar!!!" Part on the phone to each other and I about died laughing at the two of them.

Adding this one:
it was always on during Kung Fu Theater and Yan Can Cook, which my dad and I watched every Saturday together. We would make fun of the way she said "perrrr ceeem" in it.

For whatever reason, this random commercial that I saw as a kid from like a year when I lived in the middle of buttfuck nowhere is burned into my brain..

I just noticed at :49, a person in a kangaroo outfit is playing with children... Of note is a *moving* baby kangaroo head poking out from the costume at dick level. WTF?
