(People get onto a very crowded bus.)
Driver, enunciating very precisely: Please move... behind... the yellow line.
(There is much shuffling as people squeeze in tighter.)
Driver, at the next stop: I can take... anyone... who is behind... the yellow line.
(More shuffling. Stop request bell rings, driver pulls over at next stop, no one disembarks.)
Driver, quietly, still enunciating: Going once... Going twice...
(Doors shut, stop request bell rings immediately.)
Driver, quietly: Are you sure? Are you positive?
(Bus stops, lady with cane laboriously makes her way down the packed aisle.)
Lady: Excuse me, thank you. Thank you. You guys have a fun day!
Driver, quietly: That... is going... to take... some doing.
