Jeff's so relieved to have another person join the party, if only so he can ease into disengaging from the gardening club member who's telling him all about the ins and outs of soil selection. So far, his every attempt at a graceful exit has been stalled by the guy promising that his next point will be his last.
He's already gone off on five "one more thing"s to add on the subject of soil. Jeff's been counting. ]

Buddy! There you are. My new friend here was telling me all about the gardening club. [ Jeff waves a couple of brochures, so full of excitement. ] It's fascinating. Really. Let me tell you all about it at lunch-- [ Apologetically, to the gardening club rep: ] which we're late for.
[ Come on, Richard, play along. Help him out here, man! He doesn't want to talk about soil anymore! ]
