Norton helps Ralph practice for a "Name That Composer" contest, beginning EVERY song he plays with a ridiculous flourish containing "Swanee River". Hijinks ensue.

to help Ralph prepare for the TV show, and, to "loosen up" his fingers, he always started playing a few bars of Stephen Foster's "Old Folks at Home" (Swanee River).

When Ralph goes on the TV show, the song chosen for him was Swanee River.

TV Show Host: "Mr Kramden, who wrote that song?"

Ralph: "Umina Umina...Ed Norton?"
