Fro:Look, there's no way we can convince people they need fresh motor oil every morning.

Ann: No, but you can let them know that yours is the cream of the crop-the purest motor oil in the world. [handing a cafe breva to Fro] Careful, hold it by the java jacket. This coffee drink has half and half-what do you think?

Fro:It tastes funny. Why can't people just stick to plain and simple coffee?

Ann: That's just the point! Purity 1 is the essence 2 of good coffee, right?

法洛: 听着,我们不可能说服大家每天早上都需要新鲜机油的。

小安: 是不行,但你可以让他们知道,你的机油是最好的——是世上最纯的机油。(拿一杯布雷瓦咖啡给法洛)当心,握住有咖啡隔热套的地方。这杯咖啡里加的是一半牛奶、一半鲜奶油——你觉得呢?

法洛:尝起来怪怪的。为什么人们不能老老实实地喝普通咖啡就好?
