By any account, it had been a bad day. Vince had tripped going out the door and banged his shin, missed his bus, run into a fence chasing it, then failed his history exam.

Now here he sat, on the wrong side of the 805 with two flat tires, a result of an ill-timed wheelie into some brambles.

He sat there glumly, having not quite determined his next step when a red camaro pulled up. The driver rolled his window down. He had slicked down brown hair, big aviator sunglasses, and swoll arms.

"Vincent, right? We're in Psych 101 together. I really liked your joke about Freud wanting to fuck the professor's mom. You need a ride?"

Vince gratefully accepted. When he went to grab his old bike, his benefactor raised an eyebrow and said "Eh... the paint."

Vince understood and left the bike. As he sat in the passenger seat the other man offered a firm handshake. "Ben."

Am not a fan of Barry Keoghan, exactly... but I will definitely give this a shot.

Flippin' LOVED Promising Young Woman, particularly Carey Mulligan's performance.
