  • (..) and it's coming your way. Look for "Rodgers" on the truck's side. Don't forget my share of the deal. Shit! - Tuna on white, no crust, right? - I don't know. How is it? Every day, for the last three weeks, you've come here, asking how the tuna is. Now, it was crappy yesterday. It was crappy the day before. And guess what? It hasn't changed. - I'll have the tuna. - No crust? No crust. Thank you. Talk to me, Jesse. This ain't working, brother. (..)
