"We are not a Starbucks. STOP ORDERING THE GODD**N PUMPKIN SPICE."

Dallon looks up at the camera, amusement very present on his face.

Dallon: It's late September. Weather is getting colder, leaves are changing colors, and the curse of the pumpkin spice latte has returned. [clicks tongue] Ryan has officially lost it.

Ryan: We literally have a sign up saying that we don't serve the drink and people still ask for it. Do they need to go back to first grade and do reading buckets again?

"Best Green Day album? American Idiot of course," Ashley says.

Dallon shrugs, "yeah it's a great album and all, but is it the best Green Day album?"

"Ask its Grammy what it thinks."

"I'm just saying that 21st Century Breakdown is a bit underrated."

"Dallon, it's best if we do not have this argument."

Dallon nods in agreement and heads back to the register while Ashley checks to see what sweets they are running low on. Almost neither of them did not take notice to their boss dressed in a button up and black slacks.

Almost.

Dallon does a double take when he first sees Pete's outfit. He snorts at the look causing Ashley to look up to see what was happening. She giggles at the sight of her boss' appearance.

"Well, is the queen coming to visit Peter?" Ashley asks.

Pete glares at her, "f**k off. I am going to make my move on Patrick today."

Dallon crosses his arms and raises his eyebrow, "by asking him to marry you?"

A middle finger is Pete's answer.

Pete: What is the perfect way to a man's heart? [holds up a basket of sweets] Through his stomach. Who can resist cookies?

Josh closely follow his boss as the two make their way across the street. He could see the slight pit stains, but he does not think they are from the chilly weather.

"Are you nervous?" Josh asks.

Pete scoffs, "what? No! Of course not."

"But you're sweating."

"From excitement."

"Oh, okay!" Josh says. He continues walking without another word while Pete trudges behind. The camera zooms in on his frightened face.

Josh pushes open the door and patiently waits for Pete to walk in. He swallows hard and walks inside, his confidence draining with each step he took. He jumps when Josh closes the door behind them.

"You know what Josh? Let's go. I don't think he's working!" Pete says, and turns around.

Before Josh could protest, another voice stops them.
