October 10, 1978

Overview

When three friends team up to wash their fathers’ taxis, they discover that dividing the work into specialized tasks dramatically boosts their speed and earnings. But as their small operation grows—and even expands into a service‑station assembly line—they learn that specialization brings new challenges, from unfair workloads to breakdowns when one person or tool is missing. The episode explores how working together can increase productivity, and why every system has trade‑offs.
