[At this very moment, the Pie-Maker was nestled behind a table out in the snow. Although the Pie-Maker would later reflect on the irony of putting him out in the cold for a task that facilitated warmth amongst people, right now all he could think was,]

Damn, it's cold. Uh. I mean. Hello. Or, uh, Guten Tag?

You remembered!

[pie_or_death]

Well, Camp did most of the work. I just had pies to provide.

[cant_touch_this]

You know you could have just taken the credit and I never would have been the wiser, but it's nice that you made the pies to help celebrate "World Hello Day".

[pie_or_death]

Well, you know, if there's one thing I can't complain about, it's pies and world peace.

Well, that's two things, but you know.

[cant_touch_this]

I won't tell anyone you snuck in two when you should've only had one. It can be our little secret.

[pie_or_death]

I wouldn't want to seem greedy or excessive with my non-complaints.

[cant_touch_this]

No, of course not! What would everyone think if you started suddenly spouting your many optimistic and rose-coloured views of the world?

But for the record, I love it when you share your non-complaints with me.

[pie_or_death]

I like having non-complaints to share with you. In fact, I think you're my most important non-complaint.

[cant_touch_this]

Well it looks like we've got another non-complaint incoming!

[pie_or_death]

I guess I'm inspired by the holiday.

[cant_touch_this]

And apparently the spirits of camp were inspired enough as well to give us Olive before Thanksgiving! Which I realize is probably something I shouldn't really be thankful for since that means she's stuck here with the rest of us, but I can't help being happy to see her anyway because I've missed her something awful, haven't you?

[pie_or_death]

I have, actually. It's strange when you get into a habit and then something breaks that. Well, like when Olive was gotten into a habit.

[cant_touch_this]

Well I for one am glad that she's out of the habit and back into our daily habits, and I bet you for two are glad that she'll be here to take over the waitressing duties that I'm so mediocre and lackluster at.

[pie_or_death]

You're hardly mediocre and lackluster at anything, let alone serving duties, but it is nice to have Olive here, even if it means, you know, that she's here.

[cant_touch_this]

I'm sure with her chipper attitude and sunny smile, business will be booming at the The Pie Hole Lite in no time! I'm sure Peggy will be astounded by the change, though her invaluable contributions to our advertising campaigns have definitely made a difference as well.

I wonder if Pigby'll show up? I'm sure Digby will be just thrilled to see her again!

[pie_or_death]

It would be nice if she were here, yes.

But, ah, Chuck, I'm... Well, with the... current situation, I'm just thinking that Olive's arrival could have, uh, been timed more conveniently.
