A Goddamn Genius
Summary
- Cameron Cassmore is stranded on the side of the freeway having trouble with the serpentine belt of his camper.
- He struggles with the popped hood of his vehicle, noticing the parts he knows like the engine block, radiator, battery, and dipstick.
- He finds a new belt in the glove box and berates himself for not having replaced it earlier to fix the squealing noise his vehicle had been making for the last twelve hours of driving.
- Cameron's vehicle broke down on an isolated stretch of interstate outside Redding, and he sees this as another failure on his part.
- Desperate, he looks at a video tutorial on how to replace the serpentine belt. He acknowledges that if he doesn't replace the belt, the engine will overheat and break down, worsening the situation.
- Cameron decides to put in the new belt himself, bolstering his confidence by asserting that he is a "goddamn genius" and needs to step up to the challenge.
