Part of a six hour special which makes this the longest "Off The Hook" ever. Unfortunately, the first 45 minutes, which included an interview with hacker Bill Squire, is missing. On an episode of "Confuse The Operator", Emmanuel tries to connect to MCI and Sprint from New York Telephone in a demonstration of the inequality of the long distance carriers.

A caller defends AT&T, Emmanuel tries to find callers' birthplaces from their Social Security Numbers, talk of Prodigy, "helpful telephone tips" from the Defense Department phone book. In another episode of "Confuse The Operator", Emmanuel tries to call Myanmar. Steve Jackson is the guest. A 15 minute version of "Night Shift" appears in the middle. This show is in four parts and includes fundraising.
