Moan & Groan, Inc.

In a remarkable combination of racial stereotyping and interracial tolerance, Kennedy the Cop agrees to watch Farina's infant brother while the Gang go off hunting for buried treasure. In one scene, Kennedy is seen from the back apparently changing the baby's diaper. He picks up a bottle of talc and sprinkles some of the powder onto the fire hydrant next to him, noticing the powder is black. He looks at the bottle (seen in a close-up insert shot) which bears the label "Jewett Baby Talc (Flesh)", which sends the Cop into extended, good-natured laughter. A motherly black woman, also laughing at the scene, is standing nearby and comes over to Kennedy, engaging in a short, touching conversation about how she admires him for taking such an interest in the neighborhood children.
