It means "I will pay for this", as in "I will treat you to this". Usually said in the context of a restaurant meal, or possibly an activity such as going to a movie or concert.

Yes; in the context of the television script, it's a short dispute about who will pay, with both parties initially offering to pay. In a comedy, a man and a woman might have this conversation when they are trying to decide if they are "on a date," or merely dining out together. – J.R. Mar 28 '14 at 21:25
