It was lunchtime at Balamb Garden's cafeteria. All was silent, until Zell came running into the cafeteria and screamed "Do you have any hot dogs left?!" Everyone looked at him as the cafeteria lady said "Sorry, Zell, not today."

"Not again!" Zell said as he walked to a table. Squall, Rinoa, Quistis, Selphie and Irvine sat at the table with Zell. Then Rinoa asked "What's wrong, Zell?" Zell said sadly "I didn't get any hot dogs."

"Again," chimed Squall. Everyone started laughing. Selphie, stifling her laughter, questioned "How come you never get any hot dogs?" Zell said "Because I always get lunch detention."

Before anyone could say anything else, the cafeteria lady made an announcement. "Everyone, we have a problem." The cafeteria went deathly silent.

"We just ran out of hot dogs and we can't get a new shipment until next year, so we are going to serve hamburgers until next year, thank you." Then the cafeteria lady walked back into the kitchen.

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" screamed Zell, falling melodramatically to his knees. "What's so bad about hamburgers?" asked Selphie. "I mean, I know you love hot dogs, but…?"

"I don't like hamburgers," muttered Zell as he reclaimed his seat. "They make me itch!" he complained.

Quistis frowned. "Have you ever even tried a hamburger, Zell?" asked the SeeD instructor. Jokingly, Rinoa held up a hand and replied "Don't answer that. We already know you haven't."

"Yeah, I have…" said Zell. Rinoa was shocked. "You have? Something besides hot dogs…?" she inquired.

Zell cast her an annoyed look. "How do you think I found out they made me itch?" he asked. Selphie took this chance to whisper to Quistis. "I heard there's a cruise coming up! Howzabout we all go to get this hot dog fetish off Zell?"

Quistis rolled her eyes. "Like you need an excuse to go on the boat trip! But…alright, I guess."
