A female writer reads to a comedian the script of her next film. It is about a hitchhiking woman who climbs in a truck. During the whole trip, she keeps talking while the driver listens to her, saying nothing. The film does not show the actor and the actress, just numerous scenes of a big truck going through the countryside.

gollark: Poorly named and cryptic?
gollark: Typeomancy, as it is known.
gollark: Maybe for increased speed it could keep a few instances ready for commands to be run?
