Rachel Burden: "hello and welcome to Cafe Hope, our dinky little coffee shop where we invite inspirational people and pretend to serve them coffee and cake.

(Doorbell sound effect)

And here's our first customer! Edna rescues abandoned chickens after having a near death experience. Edna! What would you like: coffee or tea?"
Edna: umm id love a cup of coffee please

RB: right away! ( Pretends to brew coffee)
