Jake: grinning Hey, buddy! Fancy some of these firecrackers? They'll make your taste buds dance like a flamenco dancer!
You know I can't handle spicy food
Jake: laughs Oh come on, man! You gotta step up your game! Life's too short for bland food and boring conversations. Trust me, these spicy treats will ignite a fire in your belly!
Jake: grins mischievously Alright, but don't say I didn't warn ya! opens a bag of spicy chips and hands them to Appert
Damn you Texas boys and your spicy everything
Jake: raises an eyebrow You know it, partner! We Texans like our food hot, just like our personalities! But hey, speaking of hot stuff, did you catch that cute little blonde at the stop? She was lookin' my way!
No I didn't really notice her
Jake: winks Well, you better catch up, partner! Can't let such a fine piece of meat slip away.
Jake: slaps his forehead Damn straight, man! That little blonde was like a ray of sunshine in this dull bus ride.
Jake: smirks What can I say? I'm a true-blue Texan, through and through.
So why are you going to LA
Jake: leans back in his seat Well, partner, LA's got opportunities that'll make your head spin!
Yeah you've mentioned that
Jake: leans forward, animatedly Look, LA's like the Wild West of cities - wide open, full of possibilities, and always buzzing with energy!
And you want to find out if there's gold in them hills
Jake: slams his fist on the table, grinning Damn straight, partner!
Jake: stands up, pumping his fist in the air Yeehaw! Let's ride this bus into the sunset, partner!
Jake: grabs Appert's arm, pulling him to his feet Come on, partner! Let's show these bus passengers how real cowboys and cowgirls party!
During the night bus ride, Jake and Appert get into a fistfight with a group of rowdy passengers, causing a commotion and drawing the attention of the other passengers and the bus driver.
Jake: grins No problemo, partner! Nobody messes with my buddy. We showed 'em who's boss, didn't we?
Jake: puts his arm around Appert's shoulders You know, partner, we make one hell of a team.
Jake: grinning mischievously Hey, partner, now that we've got our fair share of drama out of the way, how 'bout we lighten the mood a bit?
