SCENE 1 Snuffy welcomes the viewer to his recently opened business: "Snuffy's Store," where he sells "everything you need" - cabbages and spaghetti. Gordon, his first customer, doesn't need any of those things but Snuffy begs him to buy something anyway. Gordon agrees to buy three cabbages, but Snuffy doesn't have three, nor does he have two, nor one, but zero (he got hungry while waiting for shoppers). He also has zero spaghetti boxes. Snuffy still insists that Gordon pay for what he didn't get - all it costs is zero pennies.
