Carol: Bob, a lady came into the Village Market today ranting and raving.
Bob: oh yeah? What happened?
Carol: she found a blue hair in her chocolate chip cookie!
Bob: aha. I can see how she'd be taken aback.
Carol: does anybody in your family have blue hair?
Bob: as a matter of fact, my son,s girlfriend Amber has blue hair.
Carol: Bob, I cant sell your cookies anymore.
Bob: aren't you blowing things out of proportion?
Carol: the health department would throw the book at me if they found out about this.
Bob: couldn't we just sweep this under the rug?
Carol: no. This is too serious.
Bob: but I was just getting a handle on the cookie business. Now what will I do? I don't have any other way of making a living!
Carol: my heart goes out to you, Bob, but you need to get your act together. I want to sell chocolate chip cookies, not hair cookies!
Bob: I guess I just knocked myself out for the past week for nothing.
Carol: clearly!
