The premise

Here’s the bit.

Moments after dinner, Nance notices the clock and realizes breakfast is only twelve hours away, and the couple happily plan every item on tomorrow's menu. Unable to wait, they set the kitchen up for the morning, check their oatmeal supply and rehearse their good-morning entrance before turning in early to make breakfast arrive sooner. They drift off reminiscing about past breakfasts and wake to cook an elaborate spread, but they devour it so quickly that they decide to slow down and savor every bite, eating in exaggerated slow motion.

Say it with us

Highly quotable.

Twelve hours from now... it's breakfast!

The sooner we go to bed, the quicker breakfast comes.

I bet in heaven, breakfast is three times a day.
