One day, a man walks into an antique store. After browsing around for a while, he finds this rat made of brass, placed in an ornate glass case. He decides it would be a wild piece of decorum for the house and brings it up to the register. The clerk says, "the brass rat costs $20, but the case is another $20." The man refuses to buy the case. Despite this, the clerk insists that the man buy the case too. The man, impatient with the clerk, replies, "Look, I don't need the stupid case, okay? Just give me my rat and I'll be going "Whatever," replies the clerk, as the man was leaving, "but you'll be back for this case."
The man gets in his car and starts driving back to his house. As he's driving, he looks into his rearview mirror to see a large group of rats following him. The man obviously dazed, collects himself and tries to lose the rodents. But every turn he takes, the rats follow, only to seemingly be joined by more rats. Somehow, the group is gaining on the car more and more by the minute. The man, panic stricken, drives straight for a cliff. Last minute, he jumps out of the car and stares in amazement as every last rat follows the car off the cliff to their demise. A flicker of realization strikes the man, and he starts running back to the antique store. After running a couple miles, he bursts into the antique store gasping for air, much to the clerk's delight. "So", the clerk says, "I see you've come back for the glass case." The man replies, "Hell no! I wanna know if you guys carry brass niggers!"
