Jin and Rick are sitting at Pat's Steaks
Pat Jr.: Good afternoon, folks. You wanted to have a word with me?
Jin: Yes. I'm Jin, and I've fallen in love with your cheese steaks!
Pat Jr.: Ha! Well, I hear that a lot. I'm the owner, Pat Junior.
Jin: Nice to meet you. I run a family restaurant business myself-in Taiwan.
Pat Jr.: So what brings you to these parts?
Jin: I'm looking to expand, and I'm keen on setting up a franchise of your store...if you're interested.
