0:05.5 | Even at Fancy Pants restaurants, years went by, but then crisps stopped doing it for her. |
0:12.8 | They got her thrown out of cinemas, and were forever in the bedsheets. |
0:19.6 | crisps! They're kind of like your current account, just because they were good ones doesn't mean you have to stick with them forever. |

0:51.6 | Are you ready to say with anticipation what are you going to ask me? |
