- Buck's party got a little out of control last night

- Dallas is hungover, as expected

- Buck is pissed that he has to clean

- He is also pissed that the only decent burger joint is twelve blocks away

- But that's what children are for

- "Oh Hannah!"

- "No, you decided to have a party, not me. Clean up by yourself."

- "I was gonna ask you to drive to the Dingo and buy some burgers."

- "....I don't know how to drive."

- "Oh Dallas!"

- " Put the key in the ignition-"

- Car lurches forward

- "Put your foot on the brake first."

- So close to crashing into the side of the bar

- But these assholes managed to hit the road :)

- Once they're on the road Dallas just closes his eyes

- "What are you doing?"

- "Sleeping. Just keep driving, you're doing fine."

- So she keeps driving

- Occasionally taps the brakes so that Dal almost hits his head on the dash

- "Hannah I-" brake "Swear to God-" brake "if you don't-" brake "fucking stop"

- Dallas mutters about how he's too sober for this

- "If you don't want to spend quality time with your little sister, just say it."

_ "I don't want to spend 'quality time' with my little sister."

- "You're a bitch, y'know that?"

- Dallas rolls out of the car when they get to the Dingo

- Like straight up tuck and rolls onto the pavement

- "Wait- how do I park?"

- "You'll figure it out."

- She doesn't

- Just keeps driving around the parking lot so Dallas has to jump in

- Casual jam sessions to Elvis

- Humming along, tapping the wheel or the dash

- And then a song Verna used to sing at the bar comes on and Hannah just kinda zones out

- Dallas accidentally hits the radio trying to stop the music

- "Can't lose your cool now, you still have to drive home."

- Then a mustang just rides their ass

- Like three inches between their bumpers

- Hannah's already speeding because she wants to get away

- Dallas is flipping them off

- "Tap the brakes again."

- "Uh? They're right behind us?"

- "Just fucking do it?"

- They get rear-ended

- Hannah starts panicking and Dallas just cackles

- "Okay now hit the gas."

- "What?"

- The socs are getting out of their car

- They're pissed

- "Pedal to the fucking metal!"

- Driving through town at 70 miles an hour

- Buck damn near has a heart attack

- but my man has his burger

- The back bumper is all messed up

- "It was like that when w got in" - Dallas and Hannah

- Dal passes out behind the bar while eating his burger

- Hannah drags him by the ankles outside

- She helps Buck clean

- "Next time you need to learn how to drive, call me."

- Buck may be only twenty-three, but he loves the Winstons with his whole heart
