Whoa. What's this? New coffee maker. Nice, isn't it? Our coffee maker was fine. Sure … but this was on sale at an amazing price. We couldn't afford not to get it. But we didn't need it. Listen closely … When one sees a deal this good, one is obligated to take advantage whether one needs it or not. I saw some golf clubs at half price. One means me, not you.

Setting up the new coffee maker? Yep. First we need to create a username and password. Huh? Then we need to connect it to the internet and update the software. Okay. Now it wants permission to access our location. It wants to send us notifications. Whatever. Should we let it have access to our database of contacts? Why not? It's just a coffee maker. Now it wants to take our picture and post it on Facebook. Fine. Can it fill this cup with coffee? Working on that.

Hey, you know what my new phone has? What? A movie-making app! I could make a film. You hit "record" before I've had coffee, and it's gonna get ugly. Aaaand delete.

Well, I'm off. Where are you going? Sunday morning coffee with the guys. Can I come? Oh, Herman, you wouldn't like it at all. Why not? It's just us old men sitting around talking politics. Complaining about stuff. I don't mind. I just want to hang out with you, dad. Well ... okay, son. Text from Sherman. He says "stash the comic books." What? Why?

This is my favorite morning spot. Why here? Got me. It's become my morning ritual. It's a nice place to sit and drink my coffee … see the sunrise … watch the rush hour traffic go by. There's always one looking at his email. Now I get it.

Becky, is that what I think it is? Yes, Megan. I found coffee. Hawthorne was under too much pressure, so he lifted the coffee tax. We can once again enjoy a civilized cup of … Becky, my friend, with all due respect … Shut up! I need a mocha! I understand. |

I don't see how you do it, Sherman. What's that? We haven't found coffee in days! How are you surviving? I simply altered my morning caffeine ritual a little bit. You should try it. I'm not having hot Mountain Dew with a Mini Moo. You'll come around. |

Morning, Megan. Grrr. Problem? I can't find a cup of coffee in this entire lagoon. Everyone's out. Oh, right. I heard about that. How can you be so calm about it? I drink tea. Who asked you?! |

Why'd you put a tax on coffee?! Budget shortfalls. Mayor. We needed an additional revenue stream. For what? Things necessary to keep the lagoon functioning and safe for all of its citizens. Mayor. If this a new "mayor" plaque? Check it out. It plays "Hail to the Chief." |

How can a coffee shop be out of coffee? The mayor put a huge tax on it. Coffee got too expensive, so we stopped serving it. Can I interest you in a rock-hard stale muffin? Sure. I'll need something to throw at Hawthorne. $12.50 please. |

It's the dawn of another day in the ocean. Yep. The sun rises, and the rhythm of life resumes. We all take our places, the curtain comes up, and the show begins. Each of us has a role, from the tiniest fish to the big daddy of them all … Yours truly … the shark. Isn't it glorious? Every morning, before I start my day. I just like to sit and watch. Well, I guess I should eat somebody. I'll hold your coffee. |

Herman is bored. So is Clayton … Every summer, it's the same thing. I wish there were a way to motivate them. You know, stimulate their little imaginations so they embrace the day ahead of them. Can we load 'em up on coffee? Tried that. Completely ruined nap time. |

Can I help you, ma'am? Yes. You worked on my coffee maker. Hawthorne's Repairs. Is there a problem? Not only does it NOT make coffee … It plays "Baby Beluga" over and over when I hit the "on" button. I see. And what did it play before? NOTHING!! |

Piñata. Cool. It's for Clayton's birthday party. Where'd you buy it? Buy it? Oh, no. I've spent weeks making this little beauty myself. I carefully cut out and painted each piece of crepe paper and attached it to the handmade frame. Then I handcrafted each individual piece of gluten-free, allergy-friendly, non-GMO, fair trade, organic candy to go inside. But all that effort will be worth it when I see the joy on my son's face as he bursts it open. So, you can buy them, you say? Corner store, by the coffee shop. |

Hi, guys! I'm Megan. I'll be your substitute math teacher today. What have you been studying? Weights and measurements. Perfect. And the best way to learn about them is through real-world application. So, who can go and get me a 16-ounce latte? |

Good heavens. What did you do to the espresso maker? I took it apart. Was it broken? No. But it was making a funny noise. And now I have some parts left over. It doesn't make a funny noise anymore. Does it work at all? No. It's quite likely that the source of the funny noise was one of these parts. Or not ... We'll never know. Brilliant. Anything else? I'm having tea. |

Sherman, would you be a dear and run to the coffee shop for me? Sure. I jotted down exactly what I'd like. Perfect. Be right back. I need a twenty-ounce soy late. It's pronounced lah-tay, not "late." Okay, but you knew what I wanted, right? Yes. Yet you took the time to mock me in front of everyone else. So you'll know better next time. Anything else? Um ... Dang. One of these. Croissant. |
