Rock music was playing through the speakers at the gas station. John jumped out the window of his yellow Jeep without opening the door. As he pumped gas into the Jeep, he danced to the rock music. A girl with blonde hair was walking past. She said, "Wow, partner, you can really move." John tipped his hat to her and winked, and then he continued his performance. John climbed onto the hood of his Jeep and began stomping, shaking his hips, and clapping. Gas overflowed from the tank of the Jeep and spilled onto the ground. John continued to strut his stuff.
