Episode 202: Priorities

The twins ask to try a cup of coffee. Mazolli hesitates. I don’t think you’ll like it, he says. We’ll like it, say the twins. It’s hot, says Mazolli. We’ll blow on it before we drink it, say the twins, to cool it down. Well, says Mazolli, if you insist. He pours them each a cup of warm black coffee. The twins put their hands around the cups and gingerly poke their nostrils into the steam. Smells good, they say as their faces contort into expressions of disgust. It’ll taste real good later, when we have our coffee break.
