So, while they thought they were gonna screw him over, he actually got something good out of it, while SHE got the consequence of guilt for her actions. Great way to turn the tables.
Hold on, conniving boyfriend? She wanted to do this, her character is manipulative and cruel. The boyfriend originally wanted to ask for help. She wanted to take advantage of someone for fun. Of course the boyfriend is also horrible and just as guilty because he went along with it.
@@tomek_maslankowski This is why Omeleto's shorts are great. They leave cliffhanger-ish endings for people to discuss what they think the ending was about.
Of course he’ll know gas has gone from his tank, she has no conscience so won’t feel guilt. Why he would entertain taking her photo in the first place baffles me. Ask if she needs help but stay in the car FGS.
She seemed to be quite taken by him in the end. As he was driving away, i got the impression she wanted to drive after him and give him a root in the fields.
That is what I thought. All this trouble to siphon some Gas. I didn;t think it was really worht it even with the Price of Gas being much higher recently.
It feels like the story was inspired by Doctor Quinn with the woman driving the red car as Michaela, the green car driver as Ethan and the boyfriend as Sully. His wife is really dead but what he forgot to say is that he abandoned her a long time ago. It would make sense with the Colorado car and the dress of the woman. I also think that he just try to torture her especially after looking at his license plate. He obviously saw the man but pretended he didn’t. The brand Toyota leads me to Denver.
@@sarahr3813 I've never seen that but when researching it looks to be a show from the 90s. Is that correct? Reading it on fandom and sounds about right.

He fully knew what was going on. On several occasions, he saw the man behind his car, and saw the top of his head too. I think he came up with that story, or embellished it for her, to make her feel guilty for what she had done.
@@JeffSchall You can see in the beginning before he pulls over that he is suffering, and you can see the stuff in the back with a picture of him and another woman. I don't think his story is in any way invented or embellished. Even if he knew (I don't think he did when he told her his story, maybe at the end) I don't think it would have been in his character or current state of mind to want to punish.
My first thought was...This lady is about to taze the guy and drive away with his body and/or car. People, if someone EVER flags you down on the road and starts saying odd things you need to have one hand on your pocket knife or pistol because you're about to get robbed in some way....I promise.
I feel sad for you if you made this experience. I personaly had a lot of interessting and funny situations with strangers who acted strange and despite from some continously asking for money I never had any issues
My first thought too, for a request like this I'd just keep on driving and not even look back unless the person is clearly hurt. And even if they are hurt I'd call police/emergency obviously.
Hey, what an unexpected plot for a short movie. Why don't you write that on a scrap of paper 🤔 (1/4 page will be heaps), then hawk it around the production houses and bankers. I bet they'll be falling all over themselves to lend you the money and suggest talented stars for such an intriguing, riveting one minute 🎥 movie 🤩
Found this channel by accident and this is the third film and I am hooked. Always more to the story than we may ever know as individuals interacting in the world. It was nice for a moment to see both sides of their stories. Thank you.
Reading the comments for clarification because what I got out of it is different. I think he knew and allowed them to take his gas. At the end, he just wanted to make her think of what they were doing. Just one take.
"Matthew Biglardi" Another thing was that longish scene in which the woman and her "boyfriend" were in the red car and she was telling him to "pick one" (from her closed hands) and then after he did, she just put a pin in her hair. What is that supposed to mean?
@@obscurelyvague short straw to see who would do the distraction and who would syphon the petrol. Agree with Bigliardi that the man figured out what was happening and created the story to make her feel guilty. Was confused as to what the story was meant to mean until i saw him smiling at the end as he drove away
The man broke out into a smile while driving away so I think your take was correct! Plus, she was lost in thought wondering if the man had pulled a fast one over her.
Notice that he has a right-hand-drive and is driving on the left, while she has a left-hand-drive and is parked as though she was driving on the right. This would have triggered my suspicion meter the moment I saw her if I were him.
It wouldn't have been a red flag at all. On those narrow country roads people tend to pull off to either side. That's what we did on narrow country roads if we had to stop. It's not like they are busy highways where you will need to take a chance and time it to get back out into your lane by crossing traffic. He lived in a village and this would have been his mentality also. Lanes like that don't have the same rules or protocol as streets or highways. Sorry, I tend to blather on when explaining things. 😸
@Lee Fazzani Left hand drive/imported cars aren't unheard of in the UK, so it wouldn't have been suspicious at all. Also, there's nothing odd about parking on the right hand side of the road - it's a single lane country road, so you park wherever is safe, and doesn't block the flow of traffic.

I thought we were gonna find out the man totally made up the story about his partner dying just to play a trick back on the girl. A double double cross. Like Spy vs. Spy from Mad Magazine
People, always stay in your car, with the doors locked, keep the vehicle running, windows only a shade down to yell through. NEVER get out even if it’s a body in the road in the middle of firkin nowhere.
Agreed! Don't be too nice to strangers. Cause there's a big chance that they're criminals. Siphoning your gas is one thing, but organ trafficker is an entirely different story. Waking up in the middle of nowhere with no kidney is no laughing matter.
@@cahidijoyoraharjo7833 By "big chance" you mean "tiny chance"... or "no chance" if you're talking about organ trafficking. People shouldn't live in fear, and especially shouldn't start looking for things to be afraid of. Be sensible, consider risks... but don't exaggerate them.
@@jen204 - Once you've been taken advantage of you grow a thicker skin to make sure it never happens again. Id say the people at most risk are the people who think it is unlikely to happen. When someone asks to borrow my phone I say, "no but i'll make a call for you on speaker" while grasping the handle of a knife or taser inside my pocket with my other hand. If someone flags me down on the street you better believe Ive got one hand on a pistol while I only crack the window an inch to talk. You havent seen what Ive seen.
@@__-pl3jg Being foolishly trusting comes with a cost, I agree (sometimes a very high cost). Being foolishly untrusting does, too, but people give too much weight to the obvious cost over the other more subtle one. Incorrectly evaluating threats is always costly, in both directions, and living with heightened fear ruins one's risk assessments. Notice that the message I responded to said there was a "big chance" that strangers were criminals, and evoked the fairy tale of organ theft. That's not a healthy worldview, and not a realistic one either. Fortunately, for most of us your past experiences are likely not representative - and certainly not for the environment seen in this film (no weapons, no violence apparently considered by either side, and the victim lost a trivial amount of gasoline, and gained a hug and a story). I don't doubt you've seen things - but I don't consider it more "real" than what I've seen (which does include being the victim of crime, more than once, and uncountable pleasurable interactions with strangers). We live different lives, in different environments, and it sounds like i wouldn't want to trade. Maybe your degree of caution is appropriate for you... it would be overkill, here. A blanket "don't ever stop to help" is not good advice except in broken places.
The stranger got her when she had unnecessary conversations everytime when he Will to click portrait...and at last he gaved her a lesson that how really it feels when loosing someone 🤗
What? Is it not like that? Whenever someone ask me to help take their picture I just pull out my phone, take their picture and walk away without saying a word.
What a thoroughly delightful film with a truly charming performance by the lead actor charly. She is totally lovable in this role and the hug she gave her 'mark' at the end was so touching. Thank you for an enjoyable film by a talented trio of actors and a great team creating the story.
is that only because she's attractive, though? Because she's a pretty horrible person in this -- inventing dead parents and conning a good samaritan and all that. But we're led to empathize with her because she felt guilt at the end for what she did? Don't get me wrong, I had the same instinctual reaction as you did, but wanted to think more about why I felt that way
Every time I watch an Omelet movie, I feel a bit like I'm walking into the Twilight Zone. Such a weird feeling. Curiosity gets me so I watch sometimes, but kind of creepy.
They may have saved his life. He was falling asleep while driving. That little wakeup may have kept him alert until he reached his father-in-laws house.
Mmm, it seems. The joke is on her. She actually meet someone she connected with emotionally and intellitually than compared to her bf level wise. Followed. Ended up losing him within 5 mins. The interaction showed her that someone with higher vibration does exist. What a silver lining.
he purposely forgot to handle the camera to the lady earlier which forced her to pick it right besides car so she could see the things he carried with him. Without that the lesson he intended to give wouldnt be possible.
The guy only had 1 gallon with him. All cars have more than that in the tank. Unless the mans car was already low. Taking one gallon would not have made any difference. But, video doesn't show his fuel gauge before he got stopped.
Spoiler(ish). . . . . . . . . . Here is what I was thinking. When he looked back at his lorry I thought maybe he spotted buddy but let it go anyway assuming they must be desperate to do that. Then after it was all done he was going to say to her, "All you had to do was ask." That's the ultimate message though, just ask, never assume "No".
@@Del-Canada Oh. I didn't pay attention to the ending. He did smirked, didn't he? But then again, he still got robbed. So in the end, he's still the victim.
@@ForteExpresso I got the feeling that he saw the man taking out petrol and know what is happening so he maybe lie to the girl because later when his car is out of petrol the girl feel guilty and kill herself 😂😂😂
I got hustled like this. A man came up with a gas tank and told me he ran out of gas and just needed 20 dollars. I gave him 5. I knew it was a hustle but he was 6,3 and large. I was just 17 and 140lbs 5, 7". All these scenarios kept playing in my head so I just played along to get out of it.
Justice happens if they try and put the fuel in their car. That Toyota LandCruiser is diesel but I highly doubt the little red car is... mwa haha. Fill it up and find out. They're not going anywhere and they've destroyed their car.
Do people really ask you to take a picture of them with your own phone / camera, otherwise, why will his answer be, "I don't have a camera", when she asks him to take her picture. 😅
And all along... he was her father... and she never even realised it... but he knew she was his daughter... her boyfriend... was his friend's, cousin's son... Barry... not the same Barry, who once was in Eastenders...
In the beginning I thought oh what a precocious sweet thing. She can't become a nun. She must sew her dark seeds. And oh my gosh. She was already there, sowing her dark seeds. We'll just call it a gray area. Hahahaha 🖖🏼🤣🥴👌
Does anyone feel like that the guy actually knew and told the sad story to make her feel guilty? The way he smiled in end made it seem like he actually knew. Haven't seen much people talking about it in the comments.
At least she didn't spill the guilt onto her boyfriend. But then when he yelled for victory of being a successful criminal, I thought, bring on the guilt!
He likely won't know that they syphoned gas from his car, and was actually grateful in the end, because he was able to speak to someone he believed understood him.

yes!!!! perfect analysis!
The whole plan would have been ruined if he parked on the right side of the road, instead of the left.

Didn't he smell something?
Thieves. Liars and bad people. Then a guy that has lost everything that mattered.
What a thoroughly delightful film with a truly charming performance by the lead actor charly. She is totally lovable in this role and the hug she gave her 'mark' at the end was so touching. Thank you for an enjoyable film by a talented trio of actors and a great team creating the story.
is that only because she's attractive, though? Because she's a pretty horrible person in this -- inventing dead parents and conning a good samaritan and all that. But we're led to empathize with her because she felt guilt at the end for what she did? Don't get me wrong, I had the same instinctual reaction as you did, but wanted to think more about why I felt that way
I was binge watching old videos of omeleto and voilà there is a new one.
One more for your insatiable appetite!
her voice is similar to those personal AI assistants in labs, perfect tone.
Every time I watch an Omelet movie, I feel a bit like I'm walking into the Twilight Zone. Such a weird feeling. Curiosity gets me so I watch sometimes, but kind of creepy.
They could have just asked him for help like the boyfriend suggested.
Lesson learned, never stop for a woman on the road by herself! 👍
Haha! As the “woman on the side of the road by myself” who’s been in genuine need of the help, I rather object to this, erm, “lesson!” 🤣
@@ravenestrella2310 funny you say that why not man up? 🤣

The moment when you realize your Fun ...may not be such a great idea.😳
Right ..just life lessons..we are all connected
The stare of the girl at the last moment tells everything, without uttering a word
2.18mins in - she's obviously mad, run dude, run.. 4.26mins in.. She's gonna murder him, I know it.. Watches to the end.. Ohhhh.. Unexpected.. Damn..
This was very good, in the end everybody got what they needed. I wish life could be as wholesome as this.
They may have saved his life. He was falling asleep while driving. That little wakeup may have kept him alert until he reached his father-in-laws house.
His fuel seemed rather low. I was expecting the girl and boyfriend to drive past him further down on the side of the road having run out of fuel.
No idea where you get the idea that he was falling asleep. He was obviously emotional about something and looking back at the stuff in the backseat.
person on the side of the road, asking for a photo instead of a lift? if it were me i'd drive the hell away
Now the man is gonna find someone else for fuel 😂😂
I found this to be a bit fuelish.
Not at all. Great little story and characters. It was a gas !
@@martineldritch 😄
🤦♂️
Mmm, it seems. The joke is on her. She actually meet someone she connected with emotionally and intellitually than compared to her bf level wise. Followed.
Ended up losing him within 5 mins. The interaction showed her that someone with higher vibration does exist. What a silver lining.
shame on those young lovers! excellently done.
She doesn't hesitate with the trauma dumping.
Plot twist, they ended up sticking diesel in a petrol car.
What a setting for a short. An intriguing, unravelling of three 'well acted' characters and their dark motives.
this is so weird, i love it
It's almost Black Mirror but so much more exquisite.
LOL! Well, didn’t karma just step right up and teach her a thing or two! 🤣
Women's guilt tends to have a rather short half life in my limited observations though. How do you know it taught her anything?
@@leonkane8240 true
A simple "No" would be sufficient.
Next time someone asks me to take their picture I'm going to say "I don't have a camera." That's hilarious.
Expect this to happen quite a bit with the price of gas right now.
he purposely forgot to handle the camera to the lady earlier which forced her to pick it right besides car so she could see the things he carried with him. Without that the lesson he intended to give wouldnt be possible.
What a very patient man
Road crimes are very common in the USA. All Americans have guns. A criminal nation armed to protect themselves from each other.
The guy only had 1 gallon with him. All cars have more than that in the tank. Unless the mans car was already low. Taking one gallon would not have made any difference. But, video doesn't show his fuel gauge before he got stopped.
Another great short film with convincing acting! Thanks!
Now that video was really good! So many stories crammed into 13 minutes, marvellous.
Spoiler(ish).

Here is what I was thinking. When he looked back at his lorry I thought maybe he spotted buddy but let it go anyway assuming they must be desperate to do that. Then after it was all done he was going to say to her, "All you had to do was ask." That's the ultimate message though, just ask, never assume "No".
Nope, I don't think that he suspected anything. He's too naive and gullible.
@@cahidijoyoraharjo7833 No, I originally thought that is how it was going to turn out. Not after I saw the ending.
@@Del-Canada Oh. I didn't pay attention to the ending. He did smirked, didn't he? But then again, he still got robbed. So in the end, he's still the victim.
@@cahidijoyoraharjo7833 yea, and was running out of gas down the road. he stopped and pulled over.
Sad but true. There are peopel like that. With NO regrets as she apparently had.
"Uno card reverse" 😂😂
How?
@@ForteExpresso I got the feeling that he saw the man taking out petrol and know what is happening so he maybe lie to the girl because later when his car is out of petrol the girl feel guilty and kill herself 😂😂😂
@@weeklymation6875 big brains 🧠🤦🏻♀️
@@ForteExpresso 😂😂😂 well there always a twist in omeleto story
@@weeklymation6875 I meant your theory is - "Kuch bhi?"
I got hustled like this. A man came up with a gas tank and told me he ran out of gas and just needed 20 dollars. I gave him 5. I knew it was a hustle but he was 6,3 and large. I was just 17 and 140lbs 5, 7". All these scenarios kept playing in my head so I just played along to get out of it.
Great movie. Love the end and her implied mixed feelings.
Justice happens if they try and put the fuel in their car. That Toyota LandCruiser is diesel but I highly doubt the little red car is... mwa haha. Fill it up and find out. They're not going anywhere and they've destroyed their car.
Do people really ask you to take a picture of them with your own phone / camera, otherwise, why will his answer be, "I don't have a camera", when she asks him to take her picture. 😅
I thought this was odd as well.
I thought for sure he was the one who killed her parents maybe drunk driving or something.
A young woman asks a stranger to take her picture, { then has more odd requests } many of us watched this with something in our minds ;)
I was really hoping in the ending the couple would've driven away, found him on the side of the road and offered him petrol
This would never happen to me.
Her: hi, can you take my picture
Me: nope
End credits
I would not get out in the middle of nowhere with a stranger or I would hope not
You must neither talk to someone you don't know
Eh?
Nice writing that was a beautiful twist.
What kind of car is she driving? I'm obsessed!
Fiat
She’s going to regret it for the rest of her life.
And all along... he was her father... and she never even realised it... but he knew she was his daughter... her boyfriend... was his friend's, cousin's son... Barry... not the same Barry, who once was in Eastenders...
My 2 mins impression of that girl is she was weird
In the beginning I thought oh what a precocious sweet thing. She can't become a nun. She must sew her dark seeds. And oh my gosh. She was already there, sowing her dark seeds. We'll just call it a gray area. Hahahaha 🖖🏼🤣🥴👌
Wouldnt it be a good ending if while the guy was telling the girl a story about his partner dying, the whole time he was syphoning gas from their car
Karma when they put the diesel they siphoned from the Toyota into the Fiat that runs on petrol….
...amd this is how we affect the others with our innocent little lies. It would have been better to ask him for some fuel,instead.
wait... the Land Cruiser is diesel. her Fiat is petrol-fueled. ...
If you're reading this, stay safe ❤️❤️
I don't want to stay safe, I want to live.
this youtube channel is a gem
Does anyone feel like that the guy actually knew and told the sad story to make her feel guilty? The way he smiled in end made it seem like he actually knew. Haven't seen much people talking about it in the comments.
At least she didn't spill the guilt onto her boyfriend.
But then when he yelled for victory of being a successful criminal, I thought, bring on the guilt!
I'm halfway through and can't take anymore of that annoying-as-hell woman! 🙄
Heh Mary
How are you keeping,
Where are you from??
SHE LOOKED SUS!
I thought the twist in the end is that she also died in the accident...😂😂
