Mnemonic

The leader of the restaurant says, "Halt!" to everyone who wants to come in. The leader looks them up and down. Stares into their eyes. And then, maybe, they may go into the restaurant to eat.

Imagine being told to halt in front of your favorite restaurant, then being turned away. Noooo! Better start sucking up to the restaurant leader.
