SNYDER, RUTH & JUDD GRAY: Scary Tales of New York TV -
March 20th 1927: Deftly switchboard operator May Ruth Brown misdirects a call to a hotshot director Albert Snyder. And it plays out like a screwball comedy. The busy guy at the end of the line gives the doll a piece of his mind. And slams down the phone. But a couple of minutes later he rings her back, and by the end of the call he’s invited her to apply for a job at the magazine. This turns out to be one hell of a wrong connection. Scary Tales of New York s1e2: Double Indemnity
They call is Double Indemnity … It is clear all is not well in the Schneider home … Ruth shares this dark secret with Judd; she also reveals her solution to the problem. ibid.
