What happens
Rush comes home excited because Uncle Fletcher has arranged a piano lesson for him with Mr. Corcoran, a gas meter reader. The family sits in the living room while Uncle Fletcher goes to great lengths to assemble a piano from scraps of lumber, junk and collected parts, and his efforts draw the attention and comments of everyone present. The household's usual chatter, including Father's habit of repeating where he was born, fills the scene as the makeshift instrument takes shape.

Written from the episode itself; it never gives away the ending. Every recording is remastered for the stream: cleaned of rumble, hiss and mains hum (and the old TV whine where we found it), then levelled in two passes to steady broadcast loudness, so one show is never quieter than the next.
