    1. A woman boards a bus and sits next to a man, hoping to get to Chicago but realizing she may be on the wrong bus. 2. The man explains that the bus broke down earlier due to the driver spilling hot chocolate on himself, and that while the bus may not be safe, the price of the trip can't be beat. 3. When asked where he's from, the man says he doesn't know for sure as he was adopted as a baby, but was raised on a farm in a small Texas town and is now on his way to visit his parents' ranch outside of Las Vegas.
