I went back, leaving him on transit, to pay. I walked in the door, explained my mission to the receptionist, and she called over the waiter and the manager. The waiter was going to be on the hook for the bill; he turned to the manager and said, "I told you this one would come back to pay. She comes here often, and she's never stiffed me for even the tip." The manager comped the meal; he said if the waiter could trust me that much, and he was obviously right, it was just an error....and one good deed deserved another. I went back often, but left the 'friend' at home. Annoying man.
(Please note that I blame my friend because I was exhausted from working 28 hours straight, and needed food and someone to talk to. I bought the meal, just to have someone to give me some support, so that I wouldn't do something stupid. That he let me walk out and told me on the subway left me fuming!)
