[Music]

There you go. Thank you.

I will be calling your daughter.

Hi. What can I do for you?

Yeah. Could I just get a decaf coffee,

please?

Not a problem. Uh, we do have to brew

some first.

You don't have any ready?

Uh, no. Oh, in the afternoon we only

brew decaf when it's ordered, but it

doesn't take

in the afternoon

when people may not want to have too

much caffeine to not ruin their sleep

that night.

We have it in the morning.

Unbelievable. That doesn't make sense.

You know, forget it. I'm going to go to

Starbucks.

No, it just takes like 45 seconds. They

They won't have it either.

Look, I don't have the time. I'm very

busy. Okay, Starbucks is going to have

it ready.

They're not going to have it.

Don't tell me how to live my life.

Wow, that lady could really use some

decaf.

Actually, yeah.

Um, hi. Uh, what what can I do for you?

Yeah, that sounds pretty good. I think

I'll just get a decaf coffee.

Okay. Yep, not a problem. Uh, just have

to brew some first. Takes about 45

seconds.

You must be kidding me.

No, in the afternoon we stop brewing

decaf until it's ordered.

I cannot believe this. In this day and

age, you can't have decaf coffee ready.

What? What? You discriminate against

decaf coffee drinkers?

I can brew it quickly.

We fought hard and successfully to

overturn so many of these abhorentt

injustices. I mean, come on. Gays can

marry. Women can vote. Blacks are now

five fifths of a person. But I can't get

a drink when I want it.

She could use a decap.

Yeah.

Uh, actually it sounds pretty good. I

I'll get a decaf.

Mhm.

Um,

I want you to know I can do it for you.

It'll take about 45 seconds.

What?

45 seconds.

Oh, I thought you said 45 minutes.

It's only going to be like 40.

you.

Hi.

You okay?

Um, what can I get for you?

How long would it take for you to make

me a latte?

About 45 seconds.

Okay, great. I'll take one of those.

Okay, coming right up.

Latte chocolate cup.

You know what? On second thought, I'm

really in a rush. I'll just have a

decaf.

We're out.

You don't have any decaf coffee

anywhere in the whole store?

You got some right there that you're

selling.

I didn't want to upset you.

Why would you upset me?

After Brucea, it would take about 45

seconds.

[Music]

If I wanted to wait 45 seconds, I would

have ordered a latte.

Look, coffee shops, we just want our

decaf coffee ready when we order it,

just like regular coffee. So, start

brewing

or timing.

my brushes.

I like we make movies.
