One day in Pallet Town Prof. Oak wanted Ash to go to Pewter City and buy a Great Ball. Pewter City just started selling them and people were buying them like crazy. When he got there, a Charizard was melting the Museum and people were running and screaming. Ash didn't care, he just went in to buy the Great Ball. When he got inside, he found the store was empty. He took a couple Great Balls and left. He saw the store owner, Jon, and told him he'd pay him back later. He didn't seem to pay any attention. Probably because a Charmander was biting his butt.
When he got back to Pallet he gave Prof. Oak his Great Balls. "Thanks" he said. Ash told Oak about what he saw at Pewter City. "Oh, my!" said Oak, stunned. "You haven't heard about it?" asked Ash. "Why, no," said the Prof., "I don't have cable." "WHAT???,"Ash screamed. "You don't have cable?"
"Why, no I..."
"I thought everyone had cable!" "What kind of a moron doesn't have cable?"
"Well, I..."
And so Ash learned something new: Some people are either too cheap or can't afford cable. |
