Full transcript
Larry, you built a time machine. Technically, Sally, it's a sausage-powered time machine. That makes absolutely no sense. Neither does time travel. Continue the same. Sally. I think we're in 1955. Larry, we are in 1955. Oh my God. What? The food must be terrible. Give me a sausage and pepper sandwich. A what? They don't know. Don't know what? Sausage and peppers, Sally. This is why we were sent back. Ladies and gentlemen, the future. That's incredible. I've changed America. You made lunch. Larry, we have to get back before you change history. Too late. I always knew I was ahead of my time. You haven't even been born yet. Continue the same. Sally. I finally did something important. Mr. Sausage, your company owes 71 years of back taxes. Get back in the car. Larry. Continue the same. Everything.

Larry Gets Inked
Larry strolls into the tattoo parlor like he owns the place and walks out with permanent proof of his one true love. The artist asked what he wanted — Larry just pointed at the foil tray.
Quick answer
What can I use instead of San Marzano tomatoes?
Use any whole peeled plum tomato packed in juice, not puree — that is the real variable. Crush them by hand, and if they taste sharp, add a pinch of sugar or a grated carrot to the pot. Avoid diced tomatoes, which stay firm because of added calcium.
