Quote context

(inside moving car)

- Does Sir Charles know you're coming?

- No, I want it to remain a surprise.

- Merde.

- Huh? What's wrong?

- Your pop-out lighter is refusing to pop out.

- Huh. It's supposed to pop out automatically when it reaches a specific temperature.

- And what exactly is this specific temperature?

- I don't know.

- Well, you should have checked with the factory. Because it is obvious that this pop-out lighter has reached its specific pop-out temperature and is refusing to pop out.

- The first rule for the car-owner: know your automobile.

- But it is your automobile.

- I know that!

- But it is not my pop-out lighter. If it were my pop-out lighter, I would know the specific pop-out temperature.
