SODA CUSTOMER:
Hi, can I get a medium 7-Up?

ENID:
Medium? Why sir, did you know that for a mere 25 cents more you can purchase a large beverage? And you know… I’m only telling you this because we’re such good friends: Medium is really only for suckers who don’t know the concept of value.

“I lost my gun today when I left you and I’m the laughingstock of a lot of people. I wanted to tell you. I wanted you to know and it’s on my mind. And it makes me look like a fool. And I feel like a fool. And you asked that we should say things – that we should say what we’re thinking and not lie about things. Well, I can tell you that, this, that I lost my gun today – and I am not a good cop. And I’m looked down at. And I know that. And I’m scared that once you find that out you may not like me.”
