They tell the clerk, "Hold it, we're coming with money in hand!" When they arrive at the store, the clerk rings up a purchase for $2,250, and Larry, Darryl, and their other brother Darryl nearly fall out of their socks! (They thought they heard $22.50.) After some thinking, they threaten to sue the store, claiming they had an enforceable contract and the store is in breach. They demand to speak to the manager.
After listening to the brothers yelling, the exasperated store clerk pages the store manager over the speaker system and states, "Store manager to the TV section; three idiots waiting for service."
