Scene of the Day: Five Easy Pieces


In this unforgettable scene from "Five Easy Pieces," Jack Nicholson just wants to order some toast with his meal. Unfortunately for him, a grouchy, uncongenial waitress continues to prevent him from ordering his side toast until he cooly thinks of a loophole where he can order a chicken sandwich and get the toasted bread if she "holds" its contents. When she figures out his trick, his response is among the funniest lines on film.

Enjoy this classic scene with me now:
