A Conversation in the Kitchen

LOREN: I have a $250 gift certificate for Sur La Table!

PRINCE: Cool.

LOREN: What should we get for the kitchen?

PRINCE: A snow cone machine!

LOREN: We're not getting a snow cone machine.

PRINCE: But I need a snow cone machine. I can't think of anything else that I would rather have.

LOREN: No, seriously, c'mon, what should we get? I narrowed it down to five things.

PRINCE: Why do you even ask me? You're gonna get what you want to get anyway, so it's pointless to pretend like I have a say in this.

LOREN: You do have a say in this...

PRINCE: Then let's get a snow cone machine!

LOREN: ...from the list of five things I've narrowed it down to.

PRINCE: A snow cone machine isn't on that list?

LOREN: We are not going to spend $250 on a snow cone machine.

PRINCE: It's not $250! It's a gift certificate! It's free!

LOREN: I'm getting a food processor.
