81
00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:23,440

Speaker 2: I think, wow, we I mean, that is someone who's

88
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:43,680
Speaker 2: literally just gone to a thirsty camel on the way there.

89
00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:51,080
Speaker 7: And I honestly would have to say that was probably

90
00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:54,240
Speaker 7: the most thoughtful gift and was true to us at

91
00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:54,600
Speaker 7: the time.

92
00:03:55,920 --> 00:04:01,120

162
00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:00,920
Speaker 4: we got it back through you.

163
00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:03,360
Speaker 2: Hear about this and I thought it something from an

164
00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:07,000
Speaker 2: old fashioned sitcom, right, But you're saying this actually happened

165
00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:08,320
Speaker 2: his brother.

166
00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:11,680
Speaker 4: I'd understand the reboat friend, but it was his brother.

167
00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:16,160

Speaker 2: they can just pull this off as well. Is remarkable.

169
00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:20,840
Speaker 5: Had it been used or just gathering dust in the

170
00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:21,640
Speaker 5: cupboard somewhere.

171
00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:25,160
Speaker 4: I think gathering dust because it was turky. I don't

172
00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:28,760
Speaker 4: think they ever opened them. I don't even drink coffee.
