THE WAITRESS
WAITRESS
So, who ordered the crescent roll?
ANTOINE
Madam, I take it you have never eaten at the Le Pierre Christophe in Paris. They are world-renowned, of course, for their variety of pastry, but especially for their croissants. Their croissants are to die for. Wonderful croissants, exquisite croissants. I could imbibe on their croissants all day. Croissant, after croissant, after croissant, after croissant. Have I made my point?
WAITRESS
OK, so, who had the crescent roll?
