Zee: Huh?

Calder: Our serpentine belt was squeaking.

Colby: Carson saw a video online that said if you rub deodorant on it, the squeak will stop.

Zee: O.o

Colby: That is an accurate representation of our faces, Zee.

Colby: Especially as we only just got it back. Dumbass decided to do his magic trick that same night!

Carson: Long story short, we don’t have a truck anymore.

Colby: And we learned a hard lesson that not every hack on the internet works lol

Calder: No. No ‘lol,’ Colby. This isn’t funny. We have to catch the bus again for school.

Carson: Ugh

Zee: Want me to ask Colton to have a look at it?

Colby: Nah. Don’t waste his time.

Zee: I’m sure it wouldn’t be the highlight of his day, lol, but he’s kind and appears to be good with his hands

Calder: Ewwww

Zee: Calder! I didn’t mean in that way.

Carson: Damn, sis. Need me to talk to him? Mano a mano?

Zee: NO! And that doesn’t mean what you think it does.

Zee: I’ve seen him fixing a tractor is all I was saying. Jeez, you guys.

Colby: You could do that and we could thank him, but you could also take us into Pigeon Creek…

Zee: When I say I’d prefer to stick pins in my eyes…

Colby: No fun

Zee: Which part of being treated like Quasimodo would make you think I want to spend any time in town?

Carson: But we’re your STRANDED baby brothers

Zee: And?

Calder: Heartless woman.

Zee: In this, definitely. I’ll tell Colt to come over and help you guys out.

Calder: No!

Zee: Why not?

Calder: He’d learn that we broke it twice.

Zee: Huh?
