The chair salesman is a bit like the guy in the Bart the Fink episode of the Simpsons where a Sydney Greenstreet analogue is the Representative of a Cayman Islands bank...
Representative: "I'm sorry, I cannot divulge information about that customer's secret, illegal account." [The representative hangs up the phone, then does a double take as he realizes what he just did.] Representative: "Oh crap, I shouldn't have said he was a customer. Oh crap, I shouldn't have said it was a secret. Oh, crap! I certainly shouldn't have said it was illegal! [sighs resignedly] Oh, it's too hot today."
