“Now it is time to bring out our guest. Let's hear it for Chef Gerard!” the talk show host says, as he motions to his guest.
The crowd claps and cheers.
“So, what are you going to prepare for us today?”
“Spicy baked chicken,” Chef Gerard responds, as he begins cooking.
“A pinch of this and a touch of that,” the chef continues.
Soon he pauses, and whispers something into the host's ear.
…
“I'm sorry,” the host says to the audience, “but we are unable to finish showing you this recipe. It looks like we have run out of thyme!”
