- Tim:
- I bet you can't eat that wad of wasabi for $10.
- Me:
- I bet YOU can't for $20.
- Tim:
- Really? $20?
- Me:
- Yea. The entire thing.
- Monnette:
- And you have to hold it in for 10 seconds.
- Elaine:
- And you have to swish it around your mouth.
- Tim:
- Okay! You're on! Takes wad of wasabi and puts into mouth. Swishes it around.
- Elaine:
- One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten!
- Tim:
- Swallows wasabi.
- Me:
- Let's see. Open your mouth.
- Tim:
- Opens mouth. Wasabi is gone.
- Monnette:
- Wooo! You did it!
- Tim:
- Silent. Eyes start to tear. Wipes nose.
- Me:
- All right man! Congratulations! Hands over $20.
- Tim:
- Slowly puts head down on table. Still doesn't say a word.
- Elaine:
- Uh, Tim?
- Tim:
- Head still down on table. Whimpers.
- Me:
- The things you'll do for $20, Tim. Tsk tsk.
