- I'm Martin Bonner.

- Travis Holloway.

Good to meet you, Travis.

Thanks for picking me up.

Oh, absolutely no problem.

Sorry about the cold.

Yeah, it's a real bummer.

I've got an extra jacket in the back if you want it.

I'm fine, thanks.

Oh.

Okay. So where to?

I'd like to go to my bank.

Okay. What's your bank?

Bank of America.

Yeah, well, that's easy.

Okay. Put your seat belt on.

[ Engine Starts ]

I'm actually not your mentor.

Um, I work for SBL. I'm the volunteer coordinator.

You short on volunteers?

Oh, no.

No, you've got a mentor.

His name's Steve Helms.

No, I know.

He came to visit.

Oh, yeah. Of course.

Anyway, he couldn't be here today.

Where is he?

I don't know.

But he thought you were getting out tomorrow.

So did I.

Where are you from?

Australia.

[ Car Speakers:

[ Continues ]

Order what you want.

It's on me.

I ate.

They gave me breakfast.

Okay.

[ Woman ] What can I get for you?

I'll just have a coffee.

Breakfast bagel.

Coffee, cream and sugar.

- You got it.

- Thank you.

You married?

No. Divorced.

Kids?

Yeah. Two.

Boy and girl, both grown up.

They live here?

No, they live in Maryland.

What part of Maryland?

Annapolis.

You got family in Maryland?

No, I have a buddy who lived in Baltimore.

You have family in Reno.

No.

Family anywhere?

I have a daughter in Arizona.

That's not too far.

Yeah.

How old is she?

Twenty-four.

[ Plates Clatter ]

Thanks.

That's good coffee.

Yeah?

This is a cool little place.

Yeah. Yeah.

This is my breakfast place.

You know, it's funny.

I've never been to Reno,

but technically I've lived here for 12 years.

I've never seen any of it.

So you didn't live in Reno?

No, I lived in Sacramento.

Oh.

Well, I've only been here about a month myself,

and I will say it's a place not without charm,

but I didn't think it could get this cold on the desert.

- You just moved here?

- Yeah.

From where?

Maryland.

Welcome to the neighborhood.

[ Chuckles ]

Does this look okay?

Looks fine.

Here's my card.

Um, call me if you have any problems with Mr. Helms...

or if you need to know anything else.

Thanks.

Do you want me to hang around until you get checked in?

No.

I'll be fine.

Good to meet you, Travis.
