Transcript

What BBN said on air in this cut. Comedy, with fictional anchors.

  1. Vera BullockThe shop made ten layers and served them as soft-serve in a waffle cone. That's discretion.

  2. Vera BullockChacha Futatsume isn't hiding ten layers. It's simply declining to comment on them, in a cone.

  3. Chip DarnellHOT. Nobody has ever hidden ten layers better.

  4. Brock ThundersonIt's reportedly twelve hundred to sixteen hundred yen, the shop is tiny, and it doesn't typically take reservations.

  5. Brock ThundersonSo we wait outside a tiny shop, no reservations, to pay around fourteen hundred yen for something dressed as soft-serve. I take that personally.

  6. Chip DarnellNOT. Reported prices run twelve hundred to sixteen hundred yen, Brock.

  7. Vera BullockSixteen hundred. Fine.

  8. Chip DarnellHere's my take. Mont Blanc is a French chestnut dessert.

  9. Chip DarnellIf the cone is the disguise, then Melbourne selling it for fourteen ninety Australian is witness protection.

  10. Brock ThundersonTen layers, and the review says don't be fooled. By what? It looks like soft-serve.
