[ She's just going to be silent for a moment as she wonders if she actually heard that or if she's still half asleep

And then: ] It's toasting it.

[thwarting]

No, no. It's gone beyond toasting it, there's smoke and no matter how often I press that little button it never comes back out.

[arealwoman]

It'll pop up when it's done. [ Don't make her go down there. She's half curious and half just wants to give him it so he can stop cursing the toaster ]

[thwarting]

Miss, please understand me, it is far past done.

[arealwoman]

Then unplug it and get it out.

[thwarting]

Get it out how?

[arealwoman]

Oh, do I have to do everything? It's not exactly trapped inside it, there's wiggle room.

[thwarting]

But the bread will be ruined by now, there's no salvaging it.

[Not even a miracle could completely make the burned taste go away. He should know, he's tried.]

[arealwoman]

So you're just going to leave it in there? That's lovely of you.

[thwarting]

No, I'll make sure it's gone, but it can't be salvaged.

[arealwoman]

Then try again and this time watch it.
