Jemaine:
[Leans over to look at Bret's cup] What's that?

Bret:
It's a cup.

Jemaine:
What, a new cup?

Bret:
Yeah. I got a new cup. Do you like it?

Jemaine:
We've got a cup.

Bret:
I know, we've got one cup. We needed two cups.

Jemaine:
Why would we need two cups?

Bret:
So I can have a cup of tea at the same time as you.

Jemaine:
Bret, do you even pay any attention to the cup roster?

Bret:
Your cup roster? That means I can't drink a cup of tea between seven and nine P.M.

Jemaine:
Well, I have it until nine o'clock and then you get it for two hours. Then I use it from eleven 'till one... Then you use it from one 'till three—

Bret:
I know, but I have to wait until one if I want another cup.

Jemaine:
...And then we give the cup a rest.

Bret:
...It was only $2.79.

Jemaine:
$2.79?

Bret:
Yeah, I thought that was quite good.

Jemaine:
[sighs] Okay, well, I just need a second to calm down.

Bret:
...Well that's alright, isn't it?

Jemaine:
I suppose...

[One Month Later]

Jemaine:
Bret... Bret!

Bret:
[playing guitar] Uh-huh?

Jemaine:
Our check for the phone bill bounced. Says here, in our bank statement, that our account was short... By $2... and 79 cents... How much was that cup again?

Bret:
2.79.

Jemaine:
[smugly] Oh? That's quite interesting, isn't it? ...Well, because our check bounced we got charged a $30 overdraft fee. Which made our gas bill bounce.

Bret:
Yep, that's boring, man.

Jemaine:
Yes, but the point is because of your $2.79 spending spree, we now owe $60, and our phone and gas are gonna be cut off.

Bret:
[sarcastically] Interesting.

[All of the lights go out]

Bret:
Ah. We got a letter from the electricity company.

Jemaine:
What did it say...?

Bret:
...I didn't read it.
