Spencer: I’m practicing making drinks for the party tonight. Do you want to try one?
Heidi: You’re the bartender ? I didn’t know you knew how to mix drinks .
Spencer: I can hold my own . Okay, name it and I’ll make it – any mixed drink or cocktail .
Heidi: Okay, I’ll have a Screwdriver .
Spencer: A Screwdriver? Hmm...what’s in that?
Heidi: Aren’t you supposed to know, Mr. Bartender?
Spencer: I’ve never made one of those before, that’s all. Try something else.
Heidi: How about a Bloody Mary ?
Spencer: A Bloody Mary, a Bloody Mary...do you want that on the rocks ?
Heidi: Sure, that’ll be great.
Spencer: Here you are – a Bloody Mary in a highball . Enjoy!
Heidi: [Makes a gagging sound] This doesn’t taste like a Bloody Mary. It tastes like you poured an entire bottle of alcohol into this.
Spencer: Oh, come on. It’s not that bad. Here, I’ll add a little soda , and oh, I forgot thegarnish .
Heidi: I don’t think that’s going to help. Can I give you some advice? Stick to shots and drinks served straight up .
Spencer: Ah, don’t lose faith in me. Let me make you one more drink.
Heidi: Okay, but make it virgin . My mouth is still on fire from the last one.
