* **Passenger 3:** Urgh! What's that under my seat?!
* (The kids are wondering why Sammy isn't picking them up)
* **Kid 1:** Look, there's our bus!
* **Kid 2:** It's going the wrong way!
* **Kid 3:** Why's it going that way?!
* (Sammy starts to head back to the garage, and Stephanie still hasn't moved an inch)
