Won't you tea mine?

It's three in the morning. What are you doing?

"Oh, hey honey! Didn't hear you come down stairs. I'm just… uh…" 

You're boiling water, aren't you?

"You mean this? Oh, jeez! You're right, this is on! Here, why don't you go back to bed and I'll turn this off and join you in about 15 minutes."

Are you making tea?

"What? Why would I…"

You have an addiction, Chris! It's the middle of night!

"You know what they say: it's always tea time somewhere."

First of all, nobody says that. Second of all, it doesn't matter, because it's not tea time here. You should be asleep.

"I'm sorry, I couldn't hear you over the whistling of the kettle. Did you say I should tea a-steep? Because I can't help but agree with you."

Chris, please!

"Call me Nigel."

No! I will not! That's not your name!

"Earl?"

Chris! Your name is CHRIS! 

"You sound stressed, honey. Here, why don't you relax with a nice mug of peppermint tea. I boiled enough water for two."

No.

"C'mon."

No!

"C'monnnnn!"

You've got a problem! 

"Just this once?"

…

"Is that a yes?"

Yes.

"Sorry, could I get that a little louder?"

Just give me the friggin' mug!

"So?"

Oh, this is good stuff!
