When they stop at a gas station while driving through a desert, Newt and Marcie are told their car needs repairs. The bill for the repairs is so high that it feels like "nothin' short of highway robbery." Thankfully, the couple are on their way to do something far more illegal and are armed to counter any extortion attempts. (Prime Video)
