"Random Stranger, that wasn't even funny."
"You didn't smile?"
"Fine, I'll give it to you. The accent made me laugh."
"What accent?"
"Stop playing dumb. It's not a nice look on you."
"I'm not 'playing dumb'."
"So you actually are dumb?"
"..."
"Sorry, go on. You weren't Robert?"
"Robert?"
"The delivery guy, Robert, with the accent. Apparently it was Italian... That wasn't you?"
"That was you?!"
"What?"
"Robert, an actual employee, got fired today because he kept on complaining that he 'didn't want to work for kids who pushed buttons all day.' He started crying because some girl on the phone made fun of his accent... He was a complete mess."
"Oh my gosh, that was my fault! I thought Robert was you!"
"What? You made Robert cry?"
"I didn't mean it!"
"No, that's freaking awesome! He was pissing all of us off anyways."
"You're welcome."
"Now you're smiling."
"Yes."
"I made you smile last night too, didn't I?"
"Yes."
"Which part made you smile?"
"The doorbell."
