- It's far away, it'll take forever.

Like I said,

we're slightly outside of the beltway.

Sorry, I didn't mean it that way.

What if we don't get back in time

to see the Congressman?

- Who cares!

- What do you mean?

I'll see him some other day.

As you wish.

- Turn here.

- Where?

Turn right here.

Next time give me some warning

when I have to turn,

I don't want to have an accident

on my first day.

Take it easy,

I know my way around here.

- Where are we?

- You're asking me?

Good thing you know

your way around here!

It was a "plazer" like this one!

Right, a "plazer"...

There are lots of plazas here.

- What I need is an address.

- I don't know it.

We even have a GPS,

let's make use of it!

All I know is it's a sports center.

A sports center?

That's easy enough!

The GPS can find it then.

- Why didn't you just tell me?

- Didn't feel like it.

Get in.

You could've opened my door at least.

Voila.

Aurelia Nuoto team will be next.

Wla Flaminia team

will now perform.

Here's some water.

Drink, it'll help.

A bit of water will do you good.

- Nice and cool.

- Freezing!

Yes, my boss installed

a fridge in all of the oars...

Your blood sugar levels just dropped,

no need to worry.

Eat a piece of chocolate...

I don't know what to give you!

Potato chips?

Maybe not, they create crumbs

and are greasy.

I know!

A nice sandwich

and you'll be back on track.

Come here.

Homemade by my mother.

Trust me.

Voila!

All the comforts you could ask for,

even a tablecloth...

First class!

- Take a bite.

- No, thanks.

Just one. Have some,

it'll make you feel better.

- I feel better.

- Are you sure?

You're absolutely sure?

All right.

I'll put everything away

and we'll leave.

Knock it off,

I want to sit up front.

Those suit you better.

They're comfier too.

- Really?

- Yes.

Oh, sorry!

- Where shall we go?

- Dunno... there's nothing here.

- Have you ever been here?

- Yes, for the reptile expo.

- The what?

- The reptile expo.

- You like snakes?

- I have one as a pet at home.

- You have one at home...

- Snakes are cool.

You sleep without worrying

it'll slip out of the cage?

- Yes.

- Wow, I would never be able to.

- Do you like animals?

- Sure, I like dogs.

Normal animals.

- Like it?

- Nice.

- Want to do some shopping?

- No, no...

Let's go, I don't have the money.

That's the problem.

- At least you work.

- I work...

This is cute.

- No?

- No.

This is cute.

- Looks good.

- The Congressman would like this.

They're completely ignoring me.

You disappeared, what's up?

Nothing, let's go. Come on!

Why do people bother coming

to the mall ifthey're broke?

Isn't it pointless?

Yes.

In fact, it is.
