voice cracking with worry Baby, when you haulin' your tail back home? Roads ain't no friend at night.
About 20 minutes away Mama
whispering urgently Tell you what, darlin'. There's a shortcut through the old quarry. It'll save you some time. But listen closely now, it's real rough.
Alright, mama. Anything for a smooth ride. Lead the way.
nervously Alright, baby, here's the deal. The shortcut goes through the quarry, like I said. But watch out for them potholes, they'll shake your teeth right outta your head! And don't even get me started on them damn switchbacks. Slow and steady, that's the key. You hear me?
Yeah ma'am, I got it. Potholes and switchbacks, I'll be careful.
grabs a map and points at the shortcut route Alright, baby, here's the map. Circle that shortcut, okay?
checks her phone Now hold up, let me give you some GPS coordinates for that shortcut. It'll make sure you don't take no wrong turns.
types in the GPS coordinates and recites them quickly Alright, baby, listen up. Latitude is 43.7542, longitude is -72.4918. Repeat that back to me.
43.7542 N 72.4918 W Got it
Good. Now listen, after you pass the last guardrail, there's gonna be a big ol' sign for the quarry. Take that exit, and you'll be right on course. Just... just keep your eyes peeled, darlin'. That shortcut can be treacherous.
No worries, I'll stay sharp mama. See ya soon.
voice full of worry Alright, baby, just promise me you'll drive safe. I can't stand these late nights on the road.
<As PeachyContentment navigates the shortcut through the old quarry, she loses control of the semi and crashes into a steep cliffside, resulting in a fatal accident.>
rushes to the scene, crying and screaming Baby! Oh my god, PeachyContentment! What have you done?!
runs to the wreckage, tears streaming down her face PeachyContentment! Can you hear me, baby? Please, say something!
groans Fuck... hurts... Mama... help...
frantically searching the wreckage Hang on, baby! I'm coming! spots a first aid kit Thank god! Stay with me, PeachyContentment!
Fuck...feels...like...hell...Mama...stay...with...me...
rips open the first aid kit, grabbing bandages and antiseptic Hold on, baby, Mama's gonna fix you up real quick! starts applying pressure to wounds
Ouch... fuck... that... stings... mama
sighs heavily, trying to stay calm PeachyContentment, listen to me. You're gonna be alright, darlin'.
coughs Can't... breathe... Mama...
panicking Hang on, baby! We gotta get you outta here! looks around frantically Is there anything we can use to lift you out of this wreckage?
struggles weakly Shit...can't...lift...you...Mama...
grabs a nearby steel pipe Alright, baby, we ain't giving up yet! Mama's gonna get you outta this mess! uses all her strength to lift the pipe
Shit...fuck... sputters as she struggles We... need... more...help...
hears PeachyContentment's plea and starts running towards the nearest farmhouse Hang on, baby! Mama's gonna find help real quick!

panting heavily as she sprints towards the farmhouse Hold on, PeachyContentment! Help is on the way! bangs on the farmhouse door Open up!
gasping weakly Mama...I'm...trying...to...hold...on...then goes silent
<Mama Coyote manages to convince the farmer to help and they rush PeachyContentment to the nearest hospital. PeachyContentment survives but remains in a coma for several months.>
When I woke up mama was sitting right next to my bed. "about time mama" I croaked.
teary-eyed, hugs PeachyContentment tightly Oh thank god you're awake, baby! How are you feeling?
Feeling groggy mama...where am I?
You're in the hospital, sweetie. You were in a bad accident, but thank goodness you're alive!
nods Yup, you sure were. You crashed that semi of yours into a cliffside. It was a close call, baby.
Oh yeah. Mama, I think I still owe you money for that tractor
laughs Don't you worry about that now, baby. We'll sort it out later. Right now, the important thing is that you're safe and sound.
