Mr. McGregor loved his garden. Loved his garden. He's not loving his garden so much right now. We told him to hand over the vegetables. His friend Mr. Redbreast. They didn't want us to have the vegetables so we had to go in very strongly. We went in very strongly and Mr. Redbreast died like a dog.

I know what you’re thinking. You’re thinking, Ed, if you love Trattoria Milanese so much, why don’t you steal their embroidered napkins, one at a time over the course of many years, until you’ve got a whole set of your own? Well listen, buddy. I’m doing my best.
