Noisy Old School Jewish Deli: “Next” and “Order Up” staccato the background.

she said what?

nothing really.

nothing?

yes, nothing.

you say nothing, you mean something.

you treat every minor inconvenience like a game of thrones subplot.

I am a passionate person.

passion- if you have passion, then Lewis Black is a kitty cat.

you're avoiding me- what did she say?

nothing... really.

really.

not really…

well then what did she say?

She said nothing.

Nothing means something. 

It means nothing.

So you didn’t fight?

No, but she didn’t make sense.

people don’t make sense when they’re angry.

No, I was thinking lox on everything

what?

what’s that got to do with anything?

You asked me.

No, I said, the-

            (NEXT)

Lox on poppyseed-everything.

            (YOU?)

Whitefish on Pumpernickel with a Perrier.

            (we’re out of pumpernickel.)

Whitefish on Egg?

            (we’re out of whitefish.)

Egg Bagel with lox.

            (he got the last of the lox)

I’ll have a Perrier.

            (get it from the cooler.-NEXT)

thank you- no, I mean it. thank you so much.

They’re outside eating it’s quieter.

You’re not eating?

I forgot.

You forgot to order food?

I forgot how much I hate this place.

This place is a classic.

They’re always out of everything. 

They had lox.

They had the one lox and you got it.

I got the last lox- whitefish?

None.

This place is an abomination.
