Episode synopsis
Karen and Roger disagree about how much or how little help people really need, and Pete just doesn't know one way or the other. Roger insists that "people should do things for themselves, not always look for help," but Karen believes that "everyone has to help everyone else." To prove his point, Roger sets out to collect materials so that he can build a doghouse. He refuses all offers of help and muddles through in his very own way, spilling nails, stumbling about with boards, and groping with tools.
About Inside/Out
Inside/Out is a 1970s educational television series. The show was produced in 1972 and 1973 by the National Instructional Television Center, in association with various contributing stations, such as KETC in St. Louis, Missouri, WVIZ in Cleveland Ohio, WNVT-TV in Northern Virginia, and The Ontario Educational Communications Authority. It was one of the last programs to be produced by NIT; the organisation would be reformulated as the "Agency for Instructional Television" in April 1973. Funding for Inside/Out was provided by grants from 32 different educational agencies within the USA and Canada, with additional support from Exxon Corporation.
