（Rita makes the espresso）

Rita: OK, Dead Man. If this doesn't start your engine, nothing will.

Robert: Thank you. Hey, do you know how espresso got its name?

Rita: No, I don't.

Robert: It's because of the way the steam and boiling water are pressed through the coffee. Es-PRESS-o, get it?

Rita: Uh, are you sure about that? I thought espresso was an Italian word.
