You Can't Do That on Television1979
Adam:
Barth, do you do catering for parties?
Barth:
[takes out a notebook] Sure, Adam. Anytime and for everything. I can take your order right here. What can I do for you?
Adam:
Let's see... I'll have 100 Barth Burgers... in mixed asortments, hamburgers, cheesburgers...
Barth:
A hundred?
Adam:
200 orders of Barth Fries, large portion.
Barth:
[writes in his notebook] Wow.
Adam:
And about 10 gallons of Barth milkshakes. Chocolate, strawberry and vanilla.
Barth:
What's the big occasion?
Adam:
Oh, I got this summer job down at the city pound and I have to put some old dogs and cats to sleep. This food should do the trick.
Barth:
What? I have never been insulted in all my life! My food is up at the first quality!
Adam:
[pulls out a roll of dollar bills] Fine, then. I'll just go someplace else and...
Barth:
[takes the dollar bills] Never mind! I'll fill out the order immediately. [Barth sorts through the clearly high denomination of dollar bills and gives Adam one bill back]
Adam:
What's this for? Why'd you give me ten dollars back?
Barth:
Just a tip for you. It's for those poor critters. When you've finished with them down at the pound, bring 'em all over here. No sense on waisting all that good meat.
