Fix the pattern

Pattern: I'll get this / I'll get this one

WrongI will pay this all.

RightI'll get this.

The natural offer is 'I'll get this', not 'I will pay this all'.

PatternI'll get this / I'll get this one

Don't confuse it

'I'll get this' = you pay it all; 'go halves' = you each pay half.
