A couple years ago a friend and I were driving across the country in a big moving truck full of my moms furniture. We had been on the road for about 18 hours on the 2nd to last day of the trip and stopped at a rest stop to stretch our legs and use the bathroom. Sitting at the rest stop late at night was an entire family, mom, dad and 2 young kids and their car which was obviously broken or otherwise not working. Feeling like I should try and help I asked the her what was wrong and he told me they had run out of gas and just needed to get to the next town which was about 40 miles away. I couldn't leave the rest stop with that family stranded so my friend and I got back in the truck and drove the 40ish miles to the next town, gas and a can and drove all the way back in our huge moving truck. The whole trip back and forth took us about an hour and a half and by the time we got back to the rest stop we were both about to pass out. Well, the family was still there waiting and I ho pped out to give them the gas they needed so badly. I handed the can to the her and he looked at me and said I would rather have the . This caught me off guard as wouldn't help them get anywhere but it was then that it dawned on me that he never wanted gas to begin with and probably had some in the car. He was just fishing for and using his kids as the bait. I felt really bad for the mom as she was just looking at me the whole time with this _expression_ of I'm so so sorry. I was at a loss for words since the dad didn't even want the gas we had just driving for over an hour to get for them. I just set the gas can on the ground, got bak in the truck and left feeling like a giant idiot.
