- We don't have much time.
- You mean you don't have much--
- Shut up.
- Oh, it's 11;48! It's 11.48!
- I know.
- We don't have much time!
- I know, Today.
- What are we going to do!
- Well, first get your hand out of my face so I can see the screen...
- Okay.
- Come on, buddy...
- What?
- Talk!
- About what?  I've been asleep all day.
- Oh, cause you had some wacky adventures into the morn?
- No, I was asleep at night, too.  I had some tea in the evening though.
- Jesus Christ.  Well, what will get you talking?  The checks!  Tell me about the checks--oh God bless the checks!
- I'm mulling over some business ideas.
- That'll work.  With your friends, right?  Oh God bless your friends.  What are your crazy ventures going to be?
- Well one of my classmates is a great cook--
- So you want to make a shirtless YouTube cooking show, like Middle of the Night Cooking Hour in Pleasant Valley?  Great.  It's a groggy show!
- No, I was just thinking about him.  He said he would have loved to pursue culinary arts, but everybody says he should be a lawyer...or a doctor.  That's where the money's at.
- Would he make a good attorney or would he just google everything as he goes?
- Well, if you're a lawyer who knows a doctor it shouldn't be a problem.
- Whatever, what are your plans?
- I'm not telling.  They laughed at me.
- Who?
- You'll laugh at me, too.
- Probably.
- Okay, Adult Frozen Yogurt.
- Packaged goods?
- Maybe later, but a Frozen Yogurt chain for adults.
- Well, that sounds mature and reasonable.
- You come in on a hot summer day after dropping off your kids for soccer practice...
- And?
- And each customer gets a female companion--an employee, of course--who sits down with you and you watch her eat her frozen yogurt.
- I see lots of problems--
- I know, what about the women, right?  Well, they can get a handsome man.  And of course, we can accommodate any particular gender preference you may have for your social agenda.
- No, not that.
- Oh, the other issue... Unfortunately, the nature and competitive spirit of the industry dictate a high turnover rate.
- You mean the girls get fired when they start gaining weight?
- Yes.
- (sighs) Quality's gone down across the board. (soft sitcom piano music playing)  I can't get back into my groove, Today.
- It's okay, you're the best.
- Thanks for the encouragement, Today.  You're wonderful. There's a recession on crushed like though.
- You can try out for one of the male employees when I open up shop.
- Okay, I'll gym it out to make sure I don't disappoint you.
