TV Trope: Going Cold Turkey

Britta: I need your help, it is Blade’s carnival that’s coming. He’s working the BB gun duck-shooting gallery - I guess he finally got that promotion - and he will call me. And left unattended, I will end up doing him like a crossword, and, I will regret it. So I need you to take my phone and don’t give it back until Monday.Annie: Of course, OK.Jeff: For real?Britta: Pipe it! And I need to stay with you this weekend. Not just stay with you, I need to be on lockdown. You were a pill head, so think of Blade as Adderall and handcuff me to the radiator like a mother-flippin’ carny-bangin’ werewolf.
