The scene opens up with David Hilt looking into a camcorder. He's in a car, doing what else, driving...
Dave: (addressing the fans) Hey guys, as you can see, I'm on the road right now. I decided to take a nice roadtrip to my new home of New England, where I'll be working full time in the new POW territory. By decided, I mean I pretty much have a fear of flying, and any other type of public transportation is just disgusting, so I had no other choice.
I figured, roadtrips are always fun and weird. Tons of unusual stuff happens right? You've seen the movies. And if you have no problem with me comparing movies to real life, than neither do I! So why not tape it? Well, the camcorder was expensive, and this tape doesn't hold much...but that's beside the point. I couldn't think of a good reason not to, so now, the journey begins!
As he drives off, turning off the camera, and a second later, the video blinks to when the camcorder was next turned on.
Hilt: So, I also bought this mini camera, that I can hide in my hat. I figure it's perfect for social situations, like the one coming up. Right, so I'm getting low on gas, so I'm pulling up into a gas station. Of course, many people here, so I thought i would document how my fans react when they see me. Well, let's see!
Hilt drives up to a pump, and steps out of the car, and of course, goes into the gas station
Hilt: (walking up to the cashier) 20 on pump 4, please.
Cashier: (yawning) alrighty.
Hilt: Say uh, you don't have to hide being star-struck.
Cashier: No, I don't. But why would I be? ...oh! *gasp* The person who works the shift after me told me that George Carlin bought gas here once, is he here again? Where!? (she frantically looks around) I'm such a big fan.
Hilt: ...20 on pump 4, please.
Cashier: Yeah yeah.
While still looking to see if the comedian is there, she accidentally gives him $100 change.
Hilt: Hey, um...
bye.
Hilt takes off, but as he's leaving, someone does recognize him.
Fan: Hey! You're David Hilt!
Dave: Er, no, no I don't think I've ever heard of any David Hilt. That is definitely not my real name.
Fan: Aw, I can understand you wanting to forget who you are after losing your debut match you hyped up so much. If it's any consolation, I can ask for your autograph.
Hilt: ...d**nit.
He begins to leave again, not wanting to talk further. When he's to his car, the cashier comes out, apparently noticing the large amount of money missing from the register. She screams and waves, and without thinking, Dave jumps in the car and takes off like a bat out of hell.
Hilt: Gah. I could have just given the money back...Now I'm a thief or something, who knows. I was probably a bit too hasty either way...
He takes of the hat and throws it to the bottom of the car. 40-50 minutes later, he turns the camcorder back on.
Hilt: .... *sigh* So yeah...Remember me going to the gas station right? Well, we all know the point of going to one is to get gas right? I somehow...seem to have forgotten that.
He almost drops the camera, and while he tries to catch it, the camera shows parts of where he's at. A road surrounded by trees and nothing else. Even though Dave does get his hands on the camcorder, after fuddling with it, it eventually does slip out of his hands, turning off when it hits the ground. He doesn't bother to turn it back on, so it's unsure what will happen, being that he's stranded in the middle of nowhere...
