[OLD MAN] Nervous?
[YOUNG MAN] A little.
[Pause]
[OLD MAN] I want to give you something- um- pretty special in our family. It belonged
to my father. It belonged to his father before him. [Grunts] It’s a hundred and sixteen
years old, and still works like new.
[YOUNG MAN] What? Wait. This is my great grandfather’s?
[OLD MAN] Yep. Used it ‘til the day he died.
[YOUNG MAN] Oh. Wait, how does it still work?
[OLD MAN] He was a vegan.
[YOUNG MAN] Well how did- wha- vegan? So?
[OLD MAN] So no clogged arteries, no diabetes, no high blood pressure. If he hadn’t been
using it on another man’s wife, he’d probably be here with us today.
[YOUNG MAN] Well- thank you, dad, um- [Laughs] I don’t know what to say.
[OLD MAN] Try it on! [Laughs] That’s what it’s there for.
[YOUNG MAN] Yeah. [Pause] Wait, um- if this is your grandfather’s, then where’s your-
[OLD MAN] Your mother locked it away somewhere. I haven’t seen it in years.
[Pause]
[YOUNG MAN] You should check on that.
[OLD MAN] Yeah. I think, uh- [Pause] Yeah, after you guys are in the car.
