215-word Apology - "Sorry I Washed My Hands in Your Soup . . ."
I thought it was Chet's soup. You know, from accounting? He would have deserved it.
I am terribly sorry about the soup incident. I have been a waiter for 13 years and I can assure you that such a thing has never happened before. Please allow me to explain. It was a scene such as I believed only happened it the movies -- two detectives entered the restaurant to arrest a notorious gangster hit man, and he decided to make a run for it. I was just lighting up a fantastic "en flambe" dish when he dashed through the dining area and pushed me aside. The brandy splashed my hands as I fell forward into the flames, and then my hands were actually on fire! Because I am an aspiring hand model, my first priority was to save them. Your nice cool gaspacho was the obvious solution and worked quite efficiently, but I do apologize for ruining your meal. Please send me the bill for the cleaning of your suit as well.
