The next morning Wednesday went to the local coffee shop in Jericho. "Hey, what can I get you?" Asked Tyler, "I need a quad over ice. It's an emergency. "It's four shots of espresso." Wednesday said, crossing her arms. "I know what a quad is but the espresso machine is having a seizure, so all we have is drip." Tyler explained, "But drip is for people who hate themselves and know that their life has no real purpose or meaning." Wednesday said harshly, "The words are also in Italian so-" Tyler said, "I don't care. I'm going back there and fixing it myself." Wednesday announced, "I need a tri-wing screwdriver, and a four-millimeter Allen wrench." "Wait, you read Italian?" Asked Tyler, "Of course. It's the native tongue of Machiavelli." "Here's the deal. I'm going to fix your coffee machine, and then you're going to make my coffee and call a taxi." "Uh, no taxis in Jericho. Try Uber." Tyler sighed, "I would never give in to technology." "valve problem. I've seen these many times." Wednesday said after a long silence, "You have an espresso machine at home?" Asked Tyler, "No, I had a guillotine I made myself when I was 6 years old. I wanted to decapitate my dolls more efficiently." Wednesday smiled at the thought, "Oh, at least the barbies went out in style." Tyler chuckled, "Yeah whatever. I have to go to my therapy session now. Bye." Wednesday said, not looking back. "Hello Miss Addams, I'm Dr. Kinbott. Please have a seat." Said Dr. Kinbott, "So, why did you want to murder that one boy at your old school?" Dr. Kinbott asked, "It was two boys, and they lost an arm. They have a spare one on their left side."
