Crash Scene 21 Summary

  • Late at night, Officer Hanson picks up a hitchhiker.
  • But it's not any hitchhiker—it's Peter, Anthony's carjacker buddy. L.A. is the smallest city ever.
  • Hanson and Peter talk about country music and ice skating, and Hanson feels like his hitchhiker is making fun of him.
  • When Peter actually does start laughing—after seeing a suction cup idol on the dashboard—Hanson pulls over and tells him to get out of the car.
  • Peter reaches into his pocket to show Hanson why he's laughing, which prompts Hanson to go into cop mode.
  • Hanson orders Peter to put his hands where he can see them.
  • But instead, Peter whips something out of his pocket.
  • Hanson shoots, killing Peter, before realizing that what Peter was showing him is the same idol. They had so much in common, after all.
  • Hanson does what is definitely not proper police procedure: dumps the body out the side of the car.
