The conversation takes place at the Baleful Refrigerator Co.  (an American company) where an executive is insisting that Americans should not buy foreign refrigerators because this hurts his company.  While he is talking, several things occur:

1. He orders steel from Japan because it is less expensive.

2. He orders handles from Taiwan for his refrigerators.

3. Icemakers come from Hong Kong or South Korea.

4. Motors come from a German company in Brazil.

5. The defroster comes from Finland.
