It's just that I was the one who actually paid for the big salad. She just happened to hand it to you. But it's no big deal.

Elaine

You want the money for the big salad, George?

George

No, no,

Elaine

What is the problem?

George

There is no problem. . . just a small miscommunication. Whereby you thanked her instead of the person actually responsible for purchasing the big salad.
