Robbery in Wyoming [0:10]
A group of recent high school graduates, including the narrator, embark on a rock climbing trip in Wyoming. They drive to the Flaming Gorge lookout and then find a spot to climb off Highway 141. While enjoying the view from the top, they notice a red pickup truck pull into their parking spot and a man begins suspiciously inspecting their car. The friends yell to deter him, but the man responds by brandishing a gun and breaking into the car. He then robs them of their phones and wallets, slashes a tire on their Jeep, and drives away. The friends report the incident to the police, but the man is never caught, leaving them shaken and fearful of remote areas.
Lost in New Mexico [7:33]
Sophia and her brother Luke are driving a U-Haul from California to New Jersey. They are warned to be careful in New Mexico due to potential scams and crime. Despite planning to drive straight through, they are forced to stop for gas in a small, remote town. After fueling up, they find themselves unable to navigate back to the highway, with roads leading them in circles and their GPS malfunctioning. A gas station clerk gives them complicated and suspicious directions. While stopped on a side street, a man in a pickup truck warns them against following those directions, saying they would lead to a dangerous area known for drug trafficking, and provides them with an alternate route back to the highway.
Trouble in Croatia [16:52]
The narrator and his girlfriend, PS, are on a budget trip to Croatia. In the city of Rijeka, they visit a local restaurant away from the touristy areas. While eating, they notice a group of rough-looking men who PS overhears discussing plans to harm them. PS, who speaks Croatian, understands the threat and urges them to leave immediately. As they leave, the men follow them, and the couple is forced to run back to the main part of town. They later learn from a local that the restaurant is a known hangout for criminals connected to organized crime. The incident leaves them shaken, and they spend the rest of their trip in fear.
