00:00A Houston woman did not take her firing well.
00:10This woman named Christmas allegedly kidnapped her boss at the Smoothie King
00:16who fired her over the holidays.
00:19That's incredible.
00:21That's incredible.
00:22Chill out, Christmas.
00:24The Smoothie King Christmas.
00:26He's a Smoothie King.
00:28Listen, they're not paying me enough to manage a Smoothie King for me to be kidnapped.
00:33No.
00:34That's my last day.
00:36A warrant is currently out for Keisha Lynette Christmas.
00:40So they haven't even caught her.
00:42For allegedly abducting her manager at a Smoothie King.
00:47It makes it less crazy that that's her last name.
00:50Yes.
00:50I thought it was her first name.
00:52I'd hate to have to fire her.
00:54I used to love the Smoothie King.
00:55I used to be obsessed with her.
00:57Oh, really?
00:58Yeah, years and years and years ago before it came here.
01:01Yeah.
01:01Like, I was in New Orleans and they had one.
01:03And I used to just be obsessed.
01:05I was like, gosh, I should open a Smoothie King.
01:08You were that invested in it.
01:10That's how much he liked it.
01:11How much is a franchise?
01:12It was so long ago.
01:14I just loved it.
01:15I drive by one.
01:16That's how I felt about Cold Stone.
01:18I drive by a Smoothie King.
01:20I didn't know they'd been around for a while.
01:22I thought it was like a new thing.
01:23No, well, around here, I don't know how many years it's been around here.
01:27It's probably been a while now.
01:28Yeah, now.
01:29Lisa wanted to be like the Smoothie King Queen in the Midwest.
01:35He's the Smoothie Queen.
01:38Yeah, I don't need your king.
01:39I'll be Smoothie Queen.
01:41Lisa, hey, Smoothie Queen.
01:44Could have been a whole new life for her.
01:45Oh, my God.
01:47Franchise.
01:47Have you ever thought back on that, though, and been like, man, that would have been a
01:50great idea.
01:51I should have done that.
01:52No, I think that was a terrible idea.
01:52Oh, so it would have been bad.
01:54Yeah.
01:54I mean, they do okay, I think.
01:56Yeah.
01:56But I don't know.
01:57I just had a moment where I was like, this is genius.
02:00These are all smoothies.
02:01These are good.
02:03On the go.
02:03You know, I've never dabbled in the smoothie game.
02:06There's a lot of calories in those things.
02:08So I think that's later I was like, ooh, boy.
02:10You're going to crunch the numbers on that.
02:12You're not really healthy.
02:13That's why they're so good.
02:14Has anyone else ever had it?
02:15I've never had a smoothie in my life.
02:17Yeah, I think they're good.
02:18I drive by it every day, and I'm like, well, I'll never go there.
02:21Yeah, I'm not going to smoothie it up.
02:23That's not your thing.
02:23Well, because I've heard that smoothies are deceitfully healthy.
02:28Exactly.
02:28It's like a deceitful, healthy thing.
02:30Yeah.
02:31It's like a meal, but probably more calories.
02:33Right.
02:34Yeah, you think you're having a nice health drink, but in the meantime, let's look at the
02:39nutrition information.
02:40I love that Lisa wanted to open my ears.
02:42I think we've all had something we love so much.
02:45Yes, that you're like, I should do this.
02:47Because I think for me, it was probably Krispy Kreme was like the first one.
02:52Like, oh, man, bringing this, getting this to Canada would be incredible.
02:57And then like it failed.
02:58I've never had a franchise dream.
03:00No.
03:00Oh, my God.
03:01I have several.
03:03You do.
03:04I do.
03:05Several.
03:06I was voted most likely to own my own hamburger place, though, in my yearbook.
03:11That's a cool.
03:11Damn.
03:12That's a cool match.
03:12Their Orange Extreme Smoothie has 93 grams of sugar.
03:15That's not that much.
03:17Damn.
03:18That's a lot.
03:19Damn.
03:19Damn.
03:19I just changed that up there.
03:21Yeah.
03:21I almost dropped a bad word.
03:23Yeah.
03:23Damn.
03:23Damn.
03:26I mean, they do have some better options, but.
03:28Let's see.
03:29They definitely do.
03:30I guess their Angel Food Slim only has 33 grams of sugar.
03:35It's a good thing, like, to pick up at the airport.
03:37Like, if you're.
03:38This is Lisa Way for Smoothie King.
03:39Lisa's really selling it.
03:40How you doing?
03:41You're on the airport.
03:41You're heading for your flight.
03:42Grab yourself a yogurt delight.
03:44Only 320 calories.
03:46Get you on the go.
03:47Smoothie King.
03:49It's not bad, Dave.
03:50On the fly there.
03:51Yep, not bad.
03:55Trying to get endorsements.
03:57Strawberry Kiwi Breeze.
04:01So ridiculous, some of the things I came up with.
04:04I really do.
04:05I think I looked into it.
04:06I actually went on the website.
04:08I was like, how much?
04:08Gladly, this is what we're doing.
04:10We're going to put a Smoothie King together.
04:11Have you thought about the gold mine that is Smoothie King?
04:15When I saw the first one open up around here, I was like, there it is.
04:19It has begun.
04:20Damn it, I'm too late.
04:23I think my whole thing, I remember when I was into Cold Stone like that, and it was
04:27like there was like one Cold Stone, and then I was like, oh man, I got to get on the ground
04:32floor of this thing.
04:34And then next thing you knew, there was like a hundred of them, and then they all failed.
04:39Everyone stopped going.
04:40And I was like, oh my God, thank God.
04:42I didn't just like lose everything.
04:43That's with me with Krispy Kreme.
04:43Lose everything.
04:44One came to my town, and then people started the whole Atkins thing, and they were eating
04:48all that crap, and Krispy Kreme went tits up almost.
04:52Like anything in the food world, I've never dreamed about.
04:54My dreams are all weirdly different.
04:56I'm like, you know where you can make a good dollar is in a parking garage.
05:00I'm like, I should start a parking garage.
05:04Yeah, you're more reasonable than us.
05:07Nobody's even in the thing.
05:08You don't have to pay anybody.
05:09Never had parking garage dreams.
05:11That's my dream.
05:12Yeah.
05:13Okay.
05:14Do you want a multi-level?
05:15You want multi-level?
05:16Oh yeah.
05:17Oh yeah.
05:18That's a hell of a dream.
05:19It's a big dream, dude.
05:21That's a good dream.
05:22I think it's a great dream.
05:24Shoot.
05:24What?
05:25You get the 40 ounce size?
05:27I do.
05:28Oh my God, there's 168 grams of sugar in the Caribbean whey.
05:32That's nothing.
05:33Wow, it has Lisa's name in it.
05:35No wonder.
05:36The Caribbean whey.
05:38Of course I'll take a Caribbean whey.
05:40Yeah, we're going to put a whole bag of sugar in that and make it taste good.
05:42Got it, T-So, got it.
05:44Passion Passport.
05:44I don't know why I feel great.
05:46181 grams of sugar.
05:47Do you remember what you'd get?
05:49No.
05:50No.
05:50I don't see it.
05:51I don't remember.
05:52It's been really a long time ago.
05:54You're like, Lenny, this is how we change our lives.
05:56Noobie King.
05:59Home run.
06:03It's only $35,000 up front.
06:06We're rolling in it.
06:08Oh, what a bad idea.
06:09Yeah, it's too bad.
06:10I do, I just.
06:11Life would have been different.
06:12To be inside Lisa's mind when she saw the first one open up and she drove down the street
06:17and was like, God, I knew it.
06:21Someone's going to be rich.
06:22Yeah.
06:23It's supposed to be my dream.
06:24Yeah.
06:26Well, we got sidetracked by Lisa Wei's smoothie queen.
06:28Well, sure.
06:29You now know that they're not the healthiest things for you.
06:31Sorry.
06:32Enjoy.
06:33Yeah, enjoy.
06:34Low fat.
06:35Low fat.
06:36There's love to think.
06:37you
