Scene 1: In a line to get into some Mexican country, Honduras was written somewhere. The queue was similar to a haphazard Six Flags line. You could pick from one of two or three beginning points that merged back together ten feet later, then split again, etc... Carley was in front of me, hoping they wouldn't question a tiny glass bottle of "water" she had. I noticed she was losing her hair and had a number of cuts. LSD? We got through, with the two guards at the door thinking I was somebody from a commercial. Entered a a field house with various plates. Found one that seemed kinda nice, sort of a plate of chicken parmesan. There was a label, something involving "Grandfather", suggesting it was a boiled or steam-cooked breaded chicken breast to make it tender. Wandered around trying to find something else, all tables were full.
Scene 1b: Sill in Honduras, but the setting in the latter half was similar to near the reach-in at work, merged with an open room with tall windows (Hillel) Tried calling my parents on my cell phone. Mom's voicemail suddenly had a Spanish accent, and a blurb about dialing international. Called Dad, no ring. Called Mom again, having Carley listen. I asked "Does it sound like she has a Spanish accent?" "Yeah". Started panicking about being stuck in a corrupt country, etc, etc, made plans for the border, end of dream.
Scene 2: Set at the old house with the camper out front. Dan whining about something to do with a radio show or something, I got it playing on the camper, I was jacking up the rear of the camper at the scissor jack.
Unknown Scenes: Something involving my brother at work, and I had five or six cell phones on the cash register counter.
References: Jacking up the camper is from jacking up the van to inspect the rear brakes (Can't get the drum off). Carley being a prominent figure in the first scene may be from hearing a voice identical to Amy's in drive-through earlier.
