I do love it when the Lockhorns take their occasional harrowing journeys into the totally absurd. The supposed joke is that the Lockhorns' budget flight is so excessively bare bones that their passengers have to buy products from a vending machine. However, all I really get from this scene are just a number of increasingly confusing questions. Don't most airlines sell the same kind of snacks you would find in a vending machine? Don't many airlines charge you for snacks on a flight anyway? Why would this airline torture this poor stewardess by forcing her to push a heavy vending machine all around the plane? How budget can an airline be when it flies their customers in gigantic cathedral ceiling aircrafts, with copious legroom, and aisles that can accommodate vending machines being pushed through them? You better believe this is a push.
