[Panel 1]
[Nils]
Someone's offering a "dolce gusto
latte nacchiato cartridge".

Is that belt-fed
or do you put it
in a magazine?

[Elizabeth]
I think it's coffee.

[Nils]
Don't be silly, coffee comes
in brown and less brown.

[Panel 2]
[Elizabeth]
I'm sure it does in your vending
machine at work. You've never
been to a Starbucks, have you?

[Nils]
Only once. I may have
been sort of slightly
banned for life.

[Elizabeth]
NOT asking.

Anyway, it sounds like
a milky caramelly coffee
with lots of froth.

[Panel 3]
[Nils]
If you want a coffee-flavoured
milk shake, why not just have one?

[Elizabeth]
Because then
it wouldn't be
costing you
50p a cup to
make at home.

And you wouldn't have a
piece of exotic plumbing
taking over your worktop.

[Panel 4]
[Nils]
And you couldn't pretend to be
drinking coffee like a grown-up?

[Elizabeth]
Well, there's
that too.

[Nils]
I think I've still
got that old etna
thing somewhere
in a cupboard.

[Elizabeth]
Why disturb it now? Let
it rust in peace and keep
drinking the instant.
