Honey!
- How's that roast coming along?
- It's almost ready, dear.
Gee, dad. That sounds close. 
- Dad, it stopped right in front of the house.
- What's going on?
Alright, everybody. Let's all just calm down. I'll take care of this.
Nice to meet you, folks! Fire Marshal Bill here.
- Won't you come in.
- Don't mind if I do.
Wow! A real fireman.
That's right, princess.
Say! You sure have a beautiful family here.
Why, thank you, Fire Marshal Bill! Now, how can we help you?
Well. It's National Fire Safety Week. 
I've been going door to door looking for fire hazards. 
Mind if I give your place a little inspection? It's free.
Please do.
Son! 
- Does your father always smoke a pipe?
- Yes, sir.
Pipes, cigarettes. Number one cause of domestic fires.
- Let me show you something.
- Certainly.
Now.
Say, one night you're drifting off to sleep on the couch, 
and the pipe falls out of your hand like that.
Now you start dreaming that you're having a little barbeque, 
you pulled out a can of lighter fluid.
Boom! You’re off to the races.
- Fire!
- What, that? Alright.
Hey, Fire Marshal Bill, your finger's on fire.
That's nothing. I've caught fire so times I can't even feel it anymore.
The trick is not to panic. Fire...is...your friend!
Uh-oh. Look what I found.
Down at the station, we like to call this an octopus. Let me show you something.
Pull these out. It becomes an exposed electrical outlet.
Let's just say it's after dinner, you got a fork in your hand. 
Somebody says, Hey, "Hey, a gaggle of geese!"  "Where, where?"
Fire Marshal Bill. Are you okay?
Are you joking? I've been hit by lightning 19 times.
That's horrible!
Not really. I'm starting to enjoy it. Okay, everybody.
Out to the kitchen.
Now, your kitchen area is an all-too-common locale for fires.
First time I spontaneously combusted 
was in a kitchen not unlike this one.
It was one of those hot nights. 
I opened the fridge and Boom! 
Went off like a powder keg. 
Ha-ha-ha... Good thing I knew how to drop and roll.
Your hand's on fire!
So it is. 
That's a sure sign that your gas flow hasn't been calibrated properly. 
Ha-ha-ha... Now.
Say, you got yourself a bit of virus. You're looking for a box of tissue.
But it's not there, and it's too late. Ah-CHOO!
Next thing you know, your gas light goes out on your new gas range. 
Suddenly your house is hit by a giant meteor storm that is totally unexpected.
One of those hot little babies comes straight through the kitchen window.
You just happen to be holding a match.
Hey! You're not gonna light that, are you? 
Don't worry, folks.
I'm a Fire Marshal.
- It's all gone, mommy.
- It'll be okay, sweetheart.
Everything we had was in there.
Come on, folks. Let's move along. You'll be all right.
They just keep building 'em higher, don't they? 
Hey! Neighbor! 
Is that a wood shingle roof you got there?
Let me show you something.

Jim Carrey在15岁时为了帮助家里的生计决定辍学打工，连高中都没有读完，后来踏足影视圈跑龙套，一跑就是好几年。在90年代初，正是他参演了这部喜剧小品《活色生香 (In Living Color)》，使他成为了风靡一时的美国谐星。所以，这部短片可谓是Jim Carrey事业的转折点。从此之后，他的星途便开始一帆风顺，才有了上述的一系列电影作品。

与本片类似的8090年代老喜剧作品，无论是主演还是配角、群演都相当敬业，演技在线。哭戏是真哭，表演也相当卖力，同时演员也熟记台词，完全不依赖提词板。尽管该短片很无厘头，但从各方面看，质量都相当高。这一点，可以从结尾几位配角的表现看出一点端倪。

结尾镜头，配角的表演相当到位

相比现在越来越多的尴尬表演，貌似，那真的是一个很不同的年代。（仅是主观地发一下牢骚:）
