Philip: I guess we must.
Ellen: We must.
Philip: OK. The beginning of my famous Thanksgiving apple pie. One apple. Two apples. Three apples. Four apples.
Ellen: Come on, Philip! Get busy with your famous apple pie. There's much more to be done.
Philip: Now, the ingredients.
Philip: What goes into my apple pie besides apples? Ah, yes. Flour, sugar, butter. Butter, nice and cold and hard. OK, here are the walnuts. Last but not least, the reason my apple pie is famous - cinnamon. Cinnamon… Ellen, where's the cinnamon?
Ellen: If there is any cinnamon, it's in the cabinet with the salt and pepper.
Philip: Salt, pepper, dill weed, garlic powder, cinnamon. Ellen?
