[Apollo's never seen Jake's "cooking show", but he walks by someone holding filled ice cream cones and can't resist. Not that he tries to resist at all. Or ask. Or use his hands.

He leans over with his mouth open wide and lifts one of the cones out of Jake's arm, already starting to chew it as he straightens up. A confused look passes over his face.]

Hey, this isn't ice cream.

[Of course with the cone still in his mouth it's difficult to make out exactly what he's saying. He's still continuing to eat it though.]

[Jake has a pretty good idea what Apollo's saying. No one's complaining about free food, but the experiment isn't flying nearly so well as he'd hoped. Oh well, most works of genius are only fully understood after their time anyhow.]

Nah, dude. That's a casserole. See, I just put it in the cones because I'd rather eat one-handed. Also, I figured if you bake it in little balls like that, you get more of the crunchy part. Hit me up next week, though. I'm making Korean red bean ice cream. Its a shame you can't eat it one-handed, though.

[Apollo continues to eat the casserole cone without using his hands, tilting his head back to keep it moving into his mouth and giving his barely intelligible response as he does so.]

It ain't bad.

[The tip of the cone disappears into his mouth and he chews for a bit before wiping his mouth with the back of his hand and licking the food remains off of it.]

Bean ice cream doesn't sound like it'd be very good.
