Conversation With The Cops
It turned out that the rude store clerk had actually called the cops on Lex. They thought a woman alone and crying in the middle of the desert was suspicious. But Lex was no criminal. She was just looking for her boyfriend. The two officers calmly but firmly explained to Lex that the store clerk had called, complaining about a woman, “haggling people for phones”. Quickly, Lex gave the officers the full story and the real reason she was stranded here.
