All they would have to do with the soda machine is snap the nozzle back on and turn the key or flip a switch. It would have maybe taken a minute to refill your soda take the nozzle off and wipe up whatever drips didn't make the cup. The only time I've ever been there it definitely didn't have a welcoming atmosphere. The popcorn that's just wasteful. I can understand running out and not making another batch.
