Sam sided with Bill Russell, a light bulb salesman and atheist, who was upset that the taxpayer money was used to buy a sound system that, as he put it, is "currently playing Christian music." As the segment continues, the viewer finds out that Bill has a weak argument as he doesn't live in Jewett City, is only exposed to the chimes about once or twice a month, the chimes, which have a small variety of songs to play, barely plays Christian music, and everyone in town loves it. Bill says that he is looking for someone in the town that is upset with the chimes as he is, but Sam goes around talking to the locals (one of them being Phil-Anthony, former co-owner of Anthony's hardware, during which Sam opens and closes his shop door causing it to emit a "chime," which alerts that someone is entering the store, and attempts to see if the chimes are antagonizing towards him. Phil-Anthony responds by telling her that it doesn't bother him and that she can keep opening and closing the door "till your arm falls off.") She finds that no one in the town seems upset by the chimes. Upon receiving no results she confronts Ron Ward, Borough Warden Candidate and JCP founder, telling him that this "is a clear violation of the separation of the Church and state." Ron, who had sent a message to Mr. Russel telling him to "leave us alone," says that the church has nothing to do with picking the songs in the first place. Bee asks if they play Christian music, and he says, "They do play ''Onward Christian Soldiers''. That's probably the only one right now that might be considered religious." Later Sam Bee returns to Mr. Russell and asks if he were in her place, would he take his side? He doesn't respond.</ref> }}
