out.
After a long beat:
GRIMSRUD
Where is Pancakes Hause?
CARL
What?
GRIMSRUD
We stop at Pancakes Hause.
CARL
What’’re you, nuts? We had

Not more fuckin’’ pancakes. Come

GRIMSRUD

CARL
Yeah, yeah, Jesus - I’’m sayin’’,
we’’ll stop for pancakes, then
we’’ll get laid. Wuddya think?

WIFE
Please, dear.
CUSTOMER
We went over this and over this -
