Well whoever it is you're worth waiting for
 
A man riding a bike strapped with crates packed with odds and ends passes a bus stop. He slows down to converse with a woman and asks if she needs company while she waits. She declines his offer, claiming she has to ditch the bus for a cab anyway because someone is expecting her. The well-meaning man concedes and continues down the road. Before he picks up speed, he swerves his tires to keep his stalled bike upright as he drops his charming line.
