Green Eggs and Ham · Season 1, Episode 1

Sam, Donna and others in “Here”

Sam

[to Guy] I am Sam. Sam-I-Am, of the Glurfsburg I-Ams. Perhaps you've heard of us. What's your handle, partner? [Guy grunts] Grumph! Lovely name. How do you spell that? Is that one "rumph" or two?

Donna

So, Sam, I imagine you'll be having the ushe?

Sam

[smiles] If you insist.

Donna

[to the diner cook] Green eggs and ham!

Diner Cook

Coming up!

Guy

Yuck!

[He goes back to reading the newspaper. Sam knocks on the paper like a door to get his attention]

Sam

[gasps softly] You don't like green eggs and ham?

Guy

[coldly] No, I do not like them, Sam I-Am. I do not like green eggs and ham.

Sam

Understood. Question asked and answered. No further queries necessary. [clicks tongue thoughtfully] Have you ever tried them before?

Guy

[sighs] No.

Sam

Well, how can you be so sure you don't like 'em if you've never actually eaten 'em?

Guy

Well, I've never eaten Walvark droppings, but I'm pretty certain I wouldn't enjoy those either.

Sam

But green eggs and ham are the most delicious-est, nutritious-est, greenest-est thing in the world, and, P.S., they are especially good here.

Guy

[annoyed] That's fantastic, but I don't want them. Here or otherwise.

Sam

Tell you what. [to Donna] Make that two orders, Donna, on me.

Guy

[also to Donna, frustrated] No, just oat mush, and a spoon!

Sam

Sad Man Special. [sucks teeth] Suit yourself.
