A Bizarre Encounter at a Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf
Can I get something started for the next person in line?
Yes, can I get a quadruple espresso with breve?
One quadruple espresso with breve, coming up.
Hi, what did we get started for you?
A quadruple espresso with breve.
For here or to go?
Both.
I'm sorry?
Both. I'm everywhere.
Um. Ok. We'll just say to go. That's $3.85.
I don't have that.
What?
I have nothing more than my hands. And feet.
I'm not really sure how to respond to that.
You don't have to respond.
Ok. Wait, so you don't have the money to pay, sir?
Pay for what?
The quadruple espresso with brev -- I'm sorry, are you Jesus?
Yes.
Oh my God.
Yes?
No, I was saying 'oh my, nevermind'. What are you doing here?
I'm trying to get a quadruple espresso with ---
Yes, yes. I know that. I mean, why are you here? It can't be just to get a coffee.
In this moment, it is.
That doesn't make any sense to me. Aren't there more pressing issues in this moment?
Yes, of course there are.
So?
'So', what?
Why aren't you taking care of them?
If I'm everywhere and nowhere at the same time, can't one of those places be a Coffee Bean?
I guess so. If you put it that way.
Indeed.
Quadruple espresso with breve!
Right here.
Thanks to you both. This coffee is divine.
Damnit -- Jesus!! You forgot to pay!!!
