Transcript excerpt

You good, sir? Good. How about yourself, man? Would you like to try this? Sure. Why not? I think it it'll probably make you wanna put this down. No. Probably not because it's got no carbonate. Best water with tequila or vodka and real juice, so there's no bubbles at all. Unfortunately, my girlfriend would be pissed if I didn't bring anything. You can bring this too, though. Mhmm. You can't help me. It's pretty fucking dirty. Clean. Cold in there? I think I only have cold vodka. Oh. Yes. Where's the tequila one at? Tequila? You rank grab this one if you worst. I'll give you a couple koozies too. Oh, you're the best. Yeah. Appreciate you. Yeah. Of course. Thank you. No problem, man. I need help out somebody locally. Yeah. Appreciate it. Thank you. Man. I'm Luke. Nice to meet you, Jeff.
