I read it. This is a an edge case. And in the interest to collaboration, I reached out to someone in authority for guidance. The object in the episode is not "synthesizer." It is an electrolarynx, as identified by an American Speech and Hearing Assoc. certified Speech Pathologist, with five hears clinical experience teaching laryngetomy patients to use them.

I do not recall the phrase "speech synthesizer" from the episode. Even if the phrase was used, it is wrong.
