Bloomin' Onions

Bloomin' Onions

ANDREW
You sure you don't wanna stop and pick up some burgers or something, you know, road trip food?

SPIKE
It's not a road trip. It's a covert operation.

ANDREW
Right. Right. Gotcha. (beat) I - I bet even covert operatives eat curly fries. They're really good.

SPIKE
(rolls eyes, then) Not as good as those onion blossom things.

ANDREW
Ooh, I love those.

SPIKE
Yeah, me, too.

ANDREW
It's an onion... and it's a flower. I - I don't understand how such a thing is possible.

SPIKE
See, the genius of it is you soak it in ice water for an hour so it holds its shape. Then you deep-fry it root-side up for about 5 minutes.

ANDREW
Masterful.

SPIKE
Yeah. (beat) Tell anyone we had this conversation, I'll bite you.

ANDREW
Right.
