There's a first time for everything, isn't there? : A Series

[theSolomonCaine]

The camera opens to a shot of the Golden Arches, a trademark of the McDonald's franchise. It pans down to the front door, then a swiping transition brings the camera to the front counter where patrons are placing their orders. A few steps away stands Solomon Caine, dressed in a t-shirt and jeans. He is looking at the menu inquistively as the front counter becomes clear of partrons.

 

Female Cashier: Sir? Can I take your order?

 

Solomon Caine: Oh! I'm sorry, I've never really been here before. Uhhhmm...

 

Caine looks around frantically and sees another customer walking through the door. He inadvertently screams.

 

Solomon Caine: ...You can go!

 

The customer looks puzzled.

 

Male Customer: Okay? Thanks.

 

The customer comes to the cashier and begins placing his order while Caine steps back and continues scanning the menu. After a moment, the customer walks away and Caine is still scanning. The cashier goes to walk away from her register.

 

Solomon Caine: Wait!

 

Female Cashier: What?!

 

Solomon Caine: I think I'm ready.

 

The cashier rolls her eyes.

 

Female Cashier: What do you want?

 

Solomon Caine: Can I get uhhm... a...

 

Caine starts to whisper.

 

Solomon Caine: A cheeseburger.

 

Female Cashier: A what?

 

Solomon Caine: You know... a cheeseburger.

 

Female Cashier: Sir, a what?!

 

Solomon Caine: A FUCKING CHEESEBURGER ALRIGHT?! DAMN.

 

Caine stops, startling himself and causing other patrons to look at him funny.

 

Solomon Caine: I'm sorry, it's been a rough week. A cheeseburger.

 

The female cashier is taken aback at first but keeps talking.

 

Female Cashier: Ok, alright! Will that be all?!

 

Solomon Caine: Uhh...

 

The female cashier begins to look incesensed.

 

Solomon Caine: I guess I'll have a water too.

 

Female Cashier: Will THAT be all?!

 

Solomon Caine: Yes, thank you...

 

Caine finishes the transaction and the camera transitions to him sitting in a booth with the unwrapped burger in his hands. He struggles to bring it to his mouth, where he takes a Squidward-sized bite. He chews for a moment.

 

Solomon Caine: That's pretty good.

 

Caine takes a massive bite of the cheeseburger and then another, annoying other patrons with his loud eating. After a few bites, the burger is gone.

 

Solomon Caine: ...I gotta get another one.

 

The camera fades to black.
