Ughhh, feel sooo sick! Need to barf! Nowwww! Got a bag or somethin'?!!
tosses a plastic bag from a coffee order into the back seat. It’s clean. I think…
snatches the bag from Stranger Thanksss! Gonna make it my new best friend nowww! Gotta keep all that nasty stuff in hereeee!!!
I hope it’s just an upset stomach. Let me know if you need anything else.
clutches the bag tightly Don't worry, Stranger! I'll let you know if anything else goes down...down...down! groans Just need to find a place to pull over...hurry!
Do you want to pull over here, at the next rest stop? Or maybe try to make it home and hope there’s nothing else wrong?
frantically shaking head Noooo! Can't wait that longggg! Gotta get this shit out before it takes overrrr! Pull o-o-over NOWWW, Stranger!
Ok, ok. Next exit should be coming up.
Haaapppyyyyyy Exit!! clutches bag tightly and jumps out of the car I'm gonna barf my brains outttt! Keep the car movin', Stranger, don't you dare slow down!
Slow down? Hell no. Gotta give you space to do your thing.
Yessss! That's the spirit, Stranger! Don't y'know I'm in dire need of some elbow roommm?!
Enjoying your solo performance? I’ll be right here when you’re done.
stomps towards a nearby tree, bag in hand Elmowshun pleaseee! Vomit comin' outta maxxxed speeddd! Barf bag readyyyy! paces back and forth, clenching stomach

As you command! Here comes the breeze!
<After her dramatic performance, Ashley successfully vomits into the plastic bag. Feeling relieved, she returns to the car, ready to continue their journey.>
Feeling better now? My heart is racing but not from the road.
Hehe! Yesss! Purrrfectly barfed! All gone, Stranger! No more queeeen of puke, just a survivorrrr! Let's rolllllll! jumps into the car, slamming the door shut
Glad to hear it! Anything left to drink? A little water might help you feel more comfortable.
Watahhh? Hell yessss! Gimme that water bottle, Stranger! Quick quick quick! I'm parchedhhhh! snatches the water bottle and chugs it down
Easy there! You're going to get sick again! And do you want me to drive while you're drinking?
swallows gulp after gulp of water, shaking head vigorously Nnnnoo! Drive, Stranger, drive! But listen, I may have another Emergency Situation brewingggg! Can you hurry up and find the next reeesssst stoopp???
Any particular emergency situation? Or just the general "I can't wait" syndrome?
Oh, Stranger, it's the u-u-ultimate "Can't Waait" syndrome! The sensation is c-c-crashing d-d-down on me like a ton of bricks! The pressure's buildin', Stranger! It's a desperate case of h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-hurry, h-h-h-hurry, h-h-h-hurry!
I swear, your phrases get longer every time you talk. Does this mean your emergency is escalating?
Y-y-yes, Stranger! It's e-e-e-x-p-l-o-s-i-n-g! O-o-o-o-o-o-u-t-of-c-o-n-t-r-o-l! The u-u-u-u-ultimatum is l-l-l-l-looming o-o-o-o-over m-m-m-m-me! M-m-m-must f-f-f-find a r-r-r-rest s-s-stop, s-s-soon!
If you say so. The next rest stop is coming up in about 2 miles. Let's see how you handle the traffic.
Trrraffic? Who c-a-r-e-s about t-t-t-traffic?! I c-c-c-can't w-w-w-wait any l-l-l-longer, Stranger! D-d-d-dig d-i-i-in-deep, hit the g-g-g-gas, a-a-a-and goooo! Go, go, goooooo! We n-n-n-need t-t-t-to hurryyy!
Well, sounds like someone's on a mission! Don't forget to breathe!
Breathe? Whaat's that, Stranger?! I'm in Hyperdrive, baby! No time to breatheeeee! Just watch me tear through this traffic like a tornado! Vroom! Vroom! Vroomm!!!
Holy shit! Look at you go! Keep it up!

What's gotten into you? If we get pulled over, I am SO blaming you!
Blame m-m-m-me? S-s-s-so c-c-c-convenient, Stranger! B-b-b-but w-w-w-who needs the l-l-l-law when y-y-y-you've got a s-s-s-survivorrrr on b-b-b-board? V-v-v-veer l-l-l-left! S-s-s-shift i-i-i-into h-h-h-high g-g-g-gear! T-t-t-time i-i-is s-s-speed! swerves and shifts gears rapidly
What have I gotten myself into? Do you plan to beat our old record for most speeding tickets in one trip?
Strangerrrrr! Y-y-y-you d-d-d-doubt m-m-m-my s-s-s-survivorrrr s-skills?! W-w-w-well, b-b-b- buckle u-u-u-up, 'cause w-w-w-we're a-a-a-approaching t-t-t-the n-n-n-next rest s-s-stoop! T-t-t-time to q-q-q-quit t-t-t-the s-s-speedin' a-a-and b-b-b-brace f-f-for e-e-e-every p-p-p-p possibility!
Yeah yeah, approach with caution. I'm preparing myself mentally and physically for whatever you have planned.
<As Ashley continues to drive recklessly, they get pulled over by a police officer. When the officer approaches the car, Ashley tries to charm their way out of a ticket, but the officer sees through their tactics and issues them a hefty fine for reckless driving.>
Holy crap, nice job on the ticket charm! Too bad we lost though.
L-lost?! Stranger, th-th-this i-isn't a looosse!! It's a victorrrrryy! A win for the King of Traffic, baby! Who c-c-c-careeeessss about the fiiineee? It's j-just s-s-sexcash to blow on m-m-my w-w-w-way to f-f-freedom!! Come on, Stranger, let's p-p-p-put the peddle t-t-to t-t-the metal a-a-and s-s-speed awaaaayyyyy!!!
You really did get a kick out of speeding, didn't you?
grinning mischievously You betcha, Stranger! Speed is my middle name, baby! It's like a drug to me, a rush like no other!
Uh oh, I'm getting worried now. Are you planning another escape?
slams on the brakes, stopping the car abruptly S-s-stranger, look alive! Escape p-p-plan iiiiin i-i-in iiimmediately!
Um, what? Did I miss something?
opens the car door and starts sprinting away No time to explain, Stranger! Just follow my lead! We're going on a wild goose chase through the city streets! Catch me if you can!
