Crowds Outside My Window

Roo
Why did he take this highway? I don't understand.

Ferret
It's faster this late at night.

Roo
Not now, we are in traffic jam. It's one in the morning.

Ferret
I know, but usually it's faster, besides we're at the next exit. We'll get off soon, you'll see. It'll go fast.

Roo
This takes forever.

[They pause for a moment.]

Ferret
You know how my place is right next to this big tunnel where people are always getting into accidents?

Roo
Yes, I know.

Ferret
Why do they always get into these big crowds and just watch? I don't understand.

Roo
Well, don't you do that? I mean, come on, if you see something then you know...

Ferret
I mean sometimes I do, but it's never a form of entertainment. If no one's hurt, then what can I do? Why would I just want to stop and stare? Although in America they always talk about people rubbernecking, you know?

Roo
Rubberneck?

Ferret
Yeah, it's a person who slows down when they're driving to see the accident.

Roo
So it's same, just like America. You both stop to look.

Ferret
I guess. Except no cars. It never felt like I was taking up so much time though. Maybe I'm just used to be in cars, and not on foot.

Roo
When is traffic jam going to end? 司机! (driver!)
