This episode is a comedy about a man who finds a genie and struggles to decide what to wish for, pondering the question through a series of hypothetical dream sequences.
The gift store has just received a heavily soiled oil lamp as part of a random assortment from a distributor.
He first thinks about wishing for love and dreams of being married to Ann as a successful movie star who will not be torn away from her career.
However, he slowly realizes that being able to immediately buy anything he wants without having to wait or struggle for it, and having the capacity to give away vast sums is unsatisfying.
While taking his dog Attila on a walk, George considers power as his third prospective wish and imagines being President of the United States.
The genie who emerges is George, accompanied by Attila, who offers three wishes to the finder on the condition that the lamp be returned to the alley afterwards for another needy person to find.
