[00:35.68]It was a slow drive down the newly chosen dirt road,

[01:31.45]but being an early model from the 1970's

[01:37.46]then died before it ever really fired up.
[01:41.23]The starter lights showed
[01:43.22]but no amount of persuading would start the car properly.
[01:48.11]"I'm going to have to walk back to the main road for help"
[01:51.53]he said,
[01:52.54]shaking his head and gripping the useless steering 4 wheel
[01:56.37]in front of him.
[01:57.83]"Stay in the car and I'll be back soon"
[02:00.25]was his last words as he climbed out of the vehicle,
[02:04.62]hunched his shoulders
[02:05.90]and walked off into the darkness on his own.
[02:10.53]Although the girl did not like the idea
[02:13.47]of spending the rest of the night alone,
[02:16.47]out on a dirt road, god knows where,
[02:19.56]she was too tired to be bothered to go with him
[02:22.99]and sleepily thought of how she might nestle down
[02:27.38]in her passenger seat and dream
[02:30.29]while he was away getting help.
[02:32.69]Anyway wasn't it his idea to come way out here?
