The barista looks at Lunchroom Lady, blinks, looks at the fully stocked display case, then back to Lunchroom Lady. “Um… yes?” she says.

“But… Did you want something to eat?” asks the barista.
“Huh?” Lunchroom Lady says.
“OK, which kind of coffee would you like?” the barista asks.
“…Coffee?” Lunchroom Lady says.
