00:00I'm really sorry, but your order took much longer than expected.
00:04It's okay. The restaurant is pretty busy tonight.
00:07Thank you for understanding. Your dessert is on the house.
00:10On the house?
00:11Yes.
00:11You mean I have to eat it on the roof?
00:14What? No. It means the dessert is free.
00:17Oh, now that makes sense.
00:19Would you like chocolate cake or cheesecake?
00:21Wait, I get to choose?
00:23Of course.
00:24Then definitely chocolate cake.
00:27Excellent choice.
00:28I think on the house is my new favorite English phrase.
