Transcript

Hey, go try our cake, it's pretty popular. Oh thanks, yeah I've seen everybody eating this. It's a little wobbly though, isn't it? A little unbalanced. Hi, welcome in, here's your free plain starter cake. If you want anything else on top, let me know for a small fee. Sorry, you want me to pay you to decorate my cake? Okay. Hello, we have made them a new cake. Cake of the year. Oh, hi, hi, hi, yeah, yeah, come in. Yeah, yeah, we've got cake, come on in. Oh yeah, I remember this place. You guys used to do like caramel crunch and raspberry swirl. You still have those, right? Right, so now we only do banana baked bean cake. Yeah, that's what I thought. Bye. Hey, welcome to my bakery. It's my bakery. No, it's my bakery. The fuck? Sorry, we're still fighting over who makes the cakes here. Yeah, whatever, I don't care about that. Hey, can you get that other guy to stop calling me slurs? Well, he's a paying customer, so no.
