A man excitedly enters a shop and recognizes the two people working there as his old high school friends. He attempts to reconnect by reminiscing about their shared mainstream past, but they coldly reject him, having rebranded themselves with new names and a pretentious, anti-capitalist, Brooklyn-hipster lifestyle. The man calls out their hypocrisy before leaving in frustration, while the two friends reveal they plan to use the awkward interaction as inspiration for their creative projects.

Shut up. Shut up. Oh. Tara and Caleb from Sabertooth High. Woah. Woah. I can't believe it's you two. This is crazy. I haven't seen you guys since graduation. It's time in Kale now. Is this a farmer's market? Almost. Why are you in Brooklyn? It is the eighteenth annual insurance con. Yeah. You're looking at the vice president of paperless billing. I posted it on LinkedIn. You should link out. I get it. It was probably, like, submerged between all those, like, engagements and baby showers, but I'm glad to see you guys. You're gonna put me back on Lexa Do you remember Amy and Andy and Ali, like, our crew? We're always talking about you guys. You disappeared. It's kinda crazy. We absconded. We moved on since high school. We don't have anything in common with you guys anymore. You used to have so much fun. All those dinners at Cheesecake Factory? That Wiz Khalifa concert? La Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga. You were going nuts. And then we worked together at that Froyo shop. What are you talking about? All three of those things were bad for my digestion. We do not support chains, listen to top 40, or engage with dairy at all. At all. That's why you're on Lexapro. Are you gonna order Can I get a sugar cookie chai tea latte with whole milk? Let's make it large. It's kind of a big day. Chai and tea both mean the same thing. Culturally insensitive. Are we really gonna pretend that her AIM screen name wasn't chai tea latte fifty two until the eighth grade? Come on no. How are your parents doing? You guys were always so rich. We don't identify as rich anymore. We're anti capitalist. Anti capitalist? Your father bought a building at Julliard so you could get in. Tut, Tut. It was just a black box. And don't you have some insurance festival to get back to? Insurance Con is actually a very big good, and it's actually really exciting. You have no idea what it takes to transfer 100,000 customers to paperless billing. It's not too late to become a DJ. Oh, so nice to see you. Yeah. So nice to see you. It's actually really good seeing you guys as well. Next time you're home, we should all get together. Mm-mm. Hey, Amy. You're not gonna believe who I saw. No. It's crazy. And they don't even need dairy. I'm gonna get a whole mixtape out of that interaction. I already wrote two haikus.
