lol. if you guys want to know whats going on pg 2 hers the subtitles.


Panel 1: *Matt is underneath the car; it can be sitting on jack-stands or on a lift - your choice. He is placing a wide bucket to catch the dirty oil*

Narration: [Engine warmed up, oil refill cap open, vehicle securely raised, chocks in place. Place drain pan under drain plug.]

Matt: "So, what made you choose the Aveo?"

Alexis: "My Dad chose it for me. He said he wanted me driving a domestic, not an imported piece of crap."

Panel 2: *Alexis leans in not far from Matt, interested*

Narration: [Loosen and remove drain plug. Careful.]

Alexis: "Why do you put rubber gloves over your other gloves?"

Matt: "The rubber gloves prevent soaking, and the mechanics gloves protect against heat."

Matt: "I actually own a Mazda, myself. Watch it, the oil's hot. Back up a little, just in case."

Panel 3: *Alexis is a step closer, trying to look at what Matt is doing*

Narration: [Place soaking materials under oil filter. Remove oil filter.]

Alexis: "Oh, I don't share my Dad's views; they're all just cars to me."

Matt: "To most people, that's all they need to be. I just find it funny. The Aveo was engineered in the UK by a South Korean company, and assembled in China, Mexico, India - pretty much everywhere except the United States."

Panel 4: *Alexis looks at Matt as he comes out from under the car*

Narration: [Let the oil finish draining.]

Alexis: "But then, how is it a domestic car?"

Matt: "It isn't. The company is domestic. Whether the manufacturing benefits the local economy or not is a complete toss-up. It's like buying a product that says "Made in China" - the question of who benefits is really complicated. I just ignore it and aim for whatever has the best quality."

Panel 5: *A simple, torso-up shot of Alexis and Matt talking; Alexis giggles and smiles. you can try to illustrate him taking off the rubber gloves if you'd like, but it isn't necessary*

Alexis: "Is the Aveo good quality?"

Matt: "Did your Dad buy it for you?"

Alexis: "Yes."

Matt: "Then as far as you're concerned, it was worth every penny."

Alexis: *giggle*

Alexis: "I guess you're right; I shouldn't look a gift horse in the mouth."

Panel 6: *Matt grins slightly, and points with his thumb at the Aveo*

Matt: "Um..."

Matt: "The oil residue on the inside of your engine will continue to drip for about an hour."

Matt: "Most quick-change oil places don't bother letting it drain completely. But if you'd like, there's a local diner we could go to for lunch. Kill some time."

Panel 7: *Alexis is a bit taken aback, but smiles vaguely*

Alexis: "..."

Panel 8: *His father stands cross-armed inside his office, leaning against the wall, with the door to the garage open next to him. Alexis and/or Matt is visually framed by the doorway; you can choose what pose they're in*

Tobias: "I'll allow it."

Alexis: "Just promise me you'll shower first, okay?"
