Having The Finale Word

(I’m window-shopping when I see a small row of DVDs of one of my favorite shows. I pick up the newest one, seeing as it’s the last copy on the shelf and it’s a fairly popular show. As a note, the most recent season was split into two parts, A and B. This happens at the checkout.)

Employee: *sees ‘Part 1’ on the DVD case*  “Aren’t you going to pick up part two?”

Me: “I know you guys don’t have it, so I wasn’t going to look for it.”

Employee: “Of course we do! It’s in the TV on DVD section.”

Me: “I know for a fact you don’t. Nobody has it. Can you not pressure me into trying to buy something you don’t have?”

Employee: “Well, how do you know we don’t have it if you’re not even going to look for it?”

Me: “Generally DVDs don’t go on sale until after the season’s finished, and the finale airs tonight.”
