Chef’s Note: We have noted before that forgoing a meal is a common sacrifice among superheroes.
Not so for Mr. Allen here, who has all the time in the world to enjoy his meal. And who also cryptically notes that this whole situation of waitstaff tripping and dropping food everywhere happens to him “all the time”…?
In any case, apparently one of the fringe benefits of super-speed is being able to have your pie, eat it too*, and have Superman pay the bill.
Chef’s Note: Happy National Cherry Pie Day!
If Superman orders nothing, why is there a burger in front of him? 🤔
Good catch, John! I think it’s more of the magic food duplication I discussed in my footnote.
That or Eddy & Allan need to talk to J. Michael & Chris more often 😉
