Two businessmen are passing a colleague. He has an indoor garden and is planting cards.
This is unsual behavior at an office.
Why is the man planting paper?
The third quarter is going to be delicious.

A play on the term "delicious" --- in a usual office setting, if third quarter was going to be delicious, it would be figuratively so, i.e., with juicy gossip, people getting fired, lots of drama, etc. But here, the third quarter will be literally delicious because the person growing vegetables for the company will share them in the future, which will make for delicious food. It's funny in part because the usual interpretation is about dark enjoyment of office politics, but the literal interpretation is about a wholesome vegetable feast.
