Opening
After a long night of partying with friends, you hop into your car and head home. While on the highway, your stomach starts rumbling. You have a need, a craving that can only be satisfied by chicken nuggets.
You take the first exit off the highway and pull up into the drive-thru. Taking a look at your watch, it seems you have just enough time before the unnamed fastfood store closes. Satisfied, you turn on the radio and wait eagerly. You take a look at the queue of cars in front of you. Seems like you're not the only one with the munchies.
After what seems like an eternity, you finally pull up to the order booth. The voice over the intercom asks for your order, to which you pleasingly reply your desire for chicken nuggets. The voice falls silent for a moment. Then, it responds with: "...I'm sorry, but it seems we're... all out of chicken nuggets."
You are shocked and disappointed to your very core. No nuggets? How is that possible? While you're still processing what is happening, the voice speaks again: "Sorry, but I just heard that we're closing up for today. I can get you a small milkshake on the house as an apology." Eyes glazed over, you drive up to the takeout window and are handed your milkshake. Moments later, the booth closes and you can see all lights inside the restaurant dim.
As you quietly sip your milkshake, your disappointment quickly turns to anger. This isn't chicken nuggets, this is a milkshake! You vow to yourself that you will not return home, nay, will not REST until you've had your fill of chicken nuggets.
