Quarters from Blockbuster and Captive At Mike's

I started out in a car with Em. We went to Blockbuster Video on MacArthur by the Country Club here in Irving. (our normal one) I pulled all the way up into this alcove area, and it was kind of like a drive-thru rental place. I'm not sure if I was returning something, trying to get something, or maybe even doing a deposit or withdrawal as if I were at a bank, but the ATM looking thing in front of me wound up spitting out a quarter at me. I realized this was my change from getting two chocolate cupcakes from the vending machine at work. I wondered how Blockbuster knew that I needed the change, but I was a little worried because I knew that at this point, Em would know that I had gotten the cupcakes. Either she didn't notice or didn't say anything, but I got the quarter and put it in the change bin in the car.

I then backed out of the glass enclosure, turned around, and left. We drove over the rain gutter area and got onto the main road. I traveled for a little bit, and the next thing I knew I came up to an area that was outside in the country. It was a barren type of place, but it seemed kind of like it was almost in a barn, or outside of a barn. There were some bails of hay around, and a post with a chain connected to the top. There were some walls around, and this area varied from feeling like it was outside to feeling like it was inside.

There was someone tied up to the chain, sitting at the base of the post. As I got closer to the post, I saw that it was Teresa (from Mercedes). I'm not sure if I had her tied up there, or if someone else did. I talked with her for a bit, I think either trying to figure out a way to get her out of there, or trying talk her into staying there. I really can't remember which way I was trying to work this.

Eventually there was something about me being tied up to the chain, but I'm not sure if I was just thinking it, or if it actually happened for a short bit. Eventually this place, I realized, was Mike's (former step-father) house, and we were inside of the OLD living room. I guess I wound up being on the side of trying to get her untied and get her out of there. We finally did so, and we left.
