Eighteen year old Brandon Hamilton was living the high life. Just graduating high school and with a large loan of money from his parents, he decided to hit the road and have some fun before he started college when the summer was over. "I feel like I'm on top of the world." he exclaims over the blaring music on his convertable.
However his world is about to come crashing down when he notices a blinking 'check engine' light on his dash board appear. "I guess I can check it at the next town." he says as he gets off at the next exit.
"Stepford...where have I hear that name before?" he asks himself as he gets off at that exit.
As he drives through, he sees that he's in a residential area at first, and is amazed at how big and expensive the houses look. "My place has nothing on these mansions." he says to himself.
He doesn't get too much farther though before his car breaks down on it's own right in front of one of the huge houses, steam and smoke billowing from underneath the hood.
Brandon immdiately gets out of the car and asseses the damage. "Great, looks like it's going to need to be towed." he says as he pulls out his cell phone to see if he can find a towing service, but much to his dismay, the battery's dead. "Now what?" he asks himself.
