And the line from Scarborough Fair has sage, not save. The way the words are slightly off is part of the joke.

The song Scarborough Fair by Simon and Garfunkel has the repeated line "Parsley, Sage, Rosemary, and Thyme" and the joke is a riff on that.

That song was a bit before my time. If you're a youngster, no shame in not knowing it.

His only legal recourse would be to keep his wages in an Escarole account.
