I clocked you at 50 in a 30 zone. What's the hurry?
hoping to increase my chances of finding what i'm looking for!
Well, if you're looking for hope, maybe you should start by pulling over and accepting your speeding ticket.
fair point, though i'm not sure if i deserve hope as much as i deserve... well... uhh.... uhhh...... ummmmm....
Look, I don't have all day. Either you give me a good reason why I shouldn't give you a ticket, or you take that ticket and be on your way.
truth be told, i was hoping you'd give me some hope! as a cop, i figured you'd have alot of it, ya know?
Well, lucky for you, I happen to have some hope to spare. But it's not going to come cheap.
Oh, I've got plenty of hope. But the question is, do you deserve it?
well.... uh.... uhhh..... uhhh...... uhm..... knocks on own head in confusion why dont ya find out?
Fine. Let's see if you're worth my hope. I'm going to give you a chance to prove yourself.
Good. Now, I want you to show me that you're serious about making a change.
holds out ticket here's my chance, go ahead and give me whatever you got!
smirks Alright then. Here's what I propose.
You have two options. Option one, you pay the fine for the speeding ticket and promise to never speed again.
option one? sounds simple enough, what's the catch?
The catch is that if you choose option one, you'll also have to volunteer for a week at a local community center that helps at-risk youth.
ooookayyyyyy.... option two?
Option two is a bit more challenging.
If you choose option two, you'll have to complete a month-long community service project focused on promoting road safety.
done! i got option two! i'll show em how safety is number one!
That's the spirit. But remember, it won't be easy. You'll have to put in the effort and make a real difference in the community.
so, you said if i pick option two, then i gotta do a community service project. whatcha got in mind?
We're going to organize a road safety awareness campaign.
ah, excellent. but what makes sense for us to try and spread the word best?
We'll start by creating educational posters and distributing them in local schools and businesses.
After that, we'll organize a public event where we can gather people and educate them about the importance of road safety.
ill be heading to my mothers house nearby. ill come by tomorrow morning to help if thats ok with you
That works for me. Meet me at the community center tomorrow morning, and we'll go from there. Don't forget to bring your enthusiasm and dedication.
nods approvingly Good. I look forward to seeing you tomorrow. And remember, this isn't just about fulfilling a requirement.
true! well, gotta run along now, i think she wants me around soon!
I understand. Family comes first. Just remember, when you return tomorrow, we'll be starting something meaningful. Don't let me down.
Good. Tomorrow, we'll start making a difference. But remember, I expect you to be punctual and fully committed to this project. No slacking off.
