The context of the following conversation is Robin went to the restaurant where her friends worked, because she knew they would give her food.:
Robin says I went to my friends' restaurant today for some free food..
The friend responds They give you free food?.
Robin responds Yeah, when I go there, I know I'm getting a free dinner..
The friend responds Don't you think you should just pay for your food once in a while..
Robin responds If I'm going to pay for food, it's not going to be at that place. The food is horrible..
The friend responds Maybe that's why they're giving it out for free..
