Transcript

Kaito points toward the register screen and explains that he cannot ring a free item unless two paid items come first. The customer leans closer, eyes bright with a plan. This page clarifies the rule of the joke: the register is more rigid than human logic, and the customer is about to challenge time itself.

About this chapter

3:02 AM. A man rushes in demanding only the free hot dog from a buy-2-get-1-free promo, refusing to buy the two. The register can't process it, so he decides to wait out the clock until the promo resets at 4 AM. Rin films the whole thing. The promo simply ends, devastating him — and Kaito hands him one anyway. A tight, dumb, warm one-shot.
