We get to see how the New York fire alarm system works, followed by a very good immitation of the opening of a Police Squad episode (or a Naked Gun movie, I wondered where they got that idea), including a reversed up-side-down sequence. Then a scene of fighting a five-alarmer. (Did anyone else notice the fire scene is backwards, notice the 'Garage' sign.) ***** for doing the scene 64 years before P.S.
