Rabid: Oh REALLY? Come IN, come IN!

Salesman: THANKYOU!! OH! A DIFFICULT TABLE SETTING! WHAT AN EXCELLENT OPPORTUNITY FOR ME TO DEMONSTRATE MY WARES!! ... This puts me in mind of a similar problem I encountered in a dining hall for philosophers...

Salesman: I'LL JUST SWAP THESE... AND SORT THESE...

Dr Quickly: Wait a second... you've SOLVED the table setting problem... I was GOING TO have to sort it out myself! THANKYOU! How CAN I ever repay you?!
