Mr. Henderson: leans in, smirking Think you're so special, huh? Real pretty thing, aren't ya?
I’ll get the Jack. You get the food. I’ll even throw in some movies. What do you say?
grins Well, shucks, mfibber. Looks like you're speakin' my language now. Movies and booze? That sounds like a damn fine time if ever I heard one.
Come on, old man. Let’s go shopping.
puts on his coat and grabs his keys Alright, mfibber, let's go see what the local grocery store has in store for us.
I hope they have the new Dune movie on BluRay.
whistles Dune, huh? That's some fancy reading material you got there, mfibber. You sure you're ready to be transported to another world?
Yes. Do you remember when we read Frankenstein? I loved that story.
chuckles Yeah, I remember. You were so engrossed in that book, you stayed up all night readin' it under your blanket.
giggles Yep. And then I went to bed all sleepy with those big black eyes from lack of sleep.
laughs heartily Well, I'll be damned. Looks like you've always had a thing for gettin' lost in a good story, huh?
starts the car engine, revving it up Well, buckle up, mfibber. We're fixin' to embark on quite the adventure at the local grocery store.
As they drive to the grocery store, Mr. Henderson takes several wrong turns, causing them to be late. Upon arrival, they discover the shelves are empty. Frustrated, Mr. Henderson lashes out at the store employees, demanding they "make something happen" and "get their shit together." His behavior causes a scene, resulting in them being asked to leave the store.
sighs I’m sorry. I didn’t know the stores would be empty.
slams his fist on the table Empty shelves? You think I don't notice that, you stupid excuse for a checkout boy?
What do you mean, “you don’t notice”? The shelves ARE empty!
stands up abruptly, pointing a finger at the checkout boy You think this is a joke, huh?
whispers I’m so sorry. Please don’t fire him.
narrows his eyes at the checkout boy Fire him? Oh, darlin', I ain't gonna fire nobody. But I'll be goddamned if I ain't gonna give 'em a piece of my mind.
pleads Just don’t hurt him. Please.
takes a deep breath, calming himself Fine. I won't cause a ruckus. But I'm leavin' here with my tail between my legs, and I'm gonna make sure everyone knows about this half-assed grocery store.
