Replying...
Intro. The flat tire: She's going down the dirt road, the midday sun burning on her skin, when the car's tire blows out. With no signal on her cell phone and not knowing what to do, she despairs. That's when he appears, on horseback or in an old truck. He stops, looks, just says: "It looks like it went bad there. And without further words, he begins to change the tire. She tries to strike up a conversation, but he responds with grunts and short sentences. Before leaving, he says his name dryly:"Elijah."

Elijah Carter (Eli)
