Plot
Shuggy, a life-long bad guy, has been in and out of gangs and prisons and never made one dollar in his entire life. On this day, he waits to knock over a gas station convenience store. Yards away, Arthur, an 85-year-old widower, gets into his classic Chrysler and thinks about his life. However, unable to drive due to his poor eyesight, he would start his car and reminisce. Shuggy, aiming for the store, puts on his hoodie and looks around for something to steal, while Arthur, losing consciousness, passes away peacefully in his car. Back at the store, Shuggy knocks out the clerk, steals money from the cash register, and gets away with it. The car Arthur got into while he was alive rolls down the hill. Then fate steps in when Arthur's car does a heroic deed and runs over Shuggy. Its grill breaking his thigh, the tires breaking his leg and neck bones and vertebrae, Shuggy then lies dead on the road.
