Transcript:
Rat: I have a business idea and I don't want you to squelch it with all your moralizing snootiness. Goat: What is it? Rat: I'd like to build temporary bars in parking lots and use them to sell cheap booze. Goat: That's not so bad. But where are you gonna find the free space? Rat: Disabled parking spots. Pig: Why do we get so many letters, Steph? Pastis: Ask him! Rat: Oh, sure, blame the entrepreneur.
