A group of friends have reached that part of the restaurant outing when things get potentially awkward: the moment where the check arrives.
Unfortunately, the alligator makes things slightly more awkward; he offers to pay for everyone but then makes a too-obvious failed attempt at reaching for the check with his short alligator arms.
Fortunately, Dennis picks up the check right away. And, before everyone leaves the table, the alligator doesn’t hesitate to ferociously eat some of his friend’s crispy duck.
