Mr. Lippman: Elaine, I'm in over my head. Nobody likes my muffin tops.
Elaine: So? What do you want me to do about it?
Mr. Lippman: You're the muffin top expert. Tell me what I'm doing wrong.
Elaine: Mr. Lippman, when I worked for you at Pendent Publishing, I believed in you, you know as a man of integrity. But, when I saw you in that paper hat and that apron...
Mr. Lippman: What if I cut you in for 30% of the profits?
Elaine: Deal. Here's your problem. You're making just the muffin tops.
Mr. Lippman: What do you mean?
Elaine: You've gotta make the whole muffin. Then you... Pop the top, toss the stump. Taste.
Mr. Lippman: Ah. [takes a bite] Uh-hu.
Elaine: Yeah.
Mr. Lippman: So what do we with the bottoms?
Elaine: I don't know. Give them to a soup kitchen.
Mr. Lippman: That's a good idea.
Elaine: And one more thing, you really think we need the exclamation point? Because, it's not "Top of the Muffin TO YOU!"
Mr. Lippman: No. No, it is.
