(Rita makes the espresso)
Rita: OK, Dead Man. If this doesn't start your engine, nothing will.
Robert: Thank you. Hey, do you know how espresso got its name?
Rita: No, I don't.
Robert: It's because of the way the steam and boiling water are pressed through the coffee. Es-PRESS-o, get it?
Rita: Uh, are you sure about that? I thought espresso was an Italian word.
