PLOT: On a road trip to promote 'Total Drama: Panitkew Island', Courtney had too much to eat at a buffet restaurant, and really has to go to the bathroom. When the car her friend Heather is driving stops at a gas station, would Courtney be able to sneak past the cashier, and use the bathroom there?

Courtney, the former teenager from the Total Drama series, was now an adult, living in a house in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. She had recently got back from work, (she works as a lawyer) and was putting on her laptop to talk to her friend, Heather (also from the Total Drama series) on Skype...
Heather: (cheerfully) What's up, Courtney?!
Courtney: (waves) Hello, Heather. I just got back from work.
Heather: So did I.
Courtney: And I thought we could talk for a little bit.
Heather: Okay, then. You know how the summer seasons have warm nights most of the time?
Courtney: Yeah?
Heather: Well, we had them when we were driving around in a van to promote 'Total Drama: Pahkitew Island.'
Courtney: Yes?
Heather: And on one of those nights, for dinner, you had 4 plates of food at a buffet restaurant, and we had to stop at a gas station, so you could use the bathroom there?
Courtney thought of what Heather was talking about, then she remembered...
Courtney: (groans) Oh, Heather, do we really need to bring that up?!
Heather: This was about 10 years ago, we were riding on the freeway, we finished dinner about a half hour ago at the buffet... (Courtney sighed, as Heather was just going to tell the story anyway) and you had a big meal there, and then, it started...
Flashback...
One warm summer night, a white car was driving on the highway. It was about a half-hour after two teenage girls, Courtney and Heather, left the buffet restaurant. They were driving around the country to promote 'Total Drama: Panitkew Island.' Heather was driving the car, while Courtney was in front, clutching her stomach...
Courtney: I can hold it until we get to a hotel. I just need to not think about it.
Heather: That isn't a good idea, Courtney. You need to go before then.
Courtney: We're driving through the highway.
Heather: At the next exit, I'll turn in that direction, then I'll stop at a gas station so you can use the bathroom.
Courtney was about to respond, until she heard a rumble coming from her stomach...
Courtney: Oh, gosh... okay Heather, you're right. Find me a bathroom!
Heather: Hang on!
Heather turned the car to the next exit she saw, then she pulled into the front of a gas station - convenience store in a parking space...
Heather: Okay, Courtney, just go inside and use the bathroom. I'll wait here if anything happens.
Courtney unbuckled her seatbelt, then got out of the car, walked slowly, step by step towards the door...
Courtney: Oh, gotta poop, gotta poop!
Courtney saw a sign on the door.
Courtney: 'You need to buy something to use the bathroom?' (groans) Okay, I'll sneak in to use the bathroom first, then buy something.
Courtney then walked inside the store. She saw the cashier reading a magazine. Courtney used this advantage to sneak past, by quietly taking big steps toward the back of the store, slowly. As she was making it through the store, she felt another rumble in her stomach. Courtney quietly groaned, and she held onto a low shelf with her right hand, slowly dropped down, and clutched her stomach with her left hand. Just then, she saw the restrooms, a few feet away...
Courtney: (quietly, to herself) Come on, Courtney, you can make it.
She then got back up, made big steps into the women's room. Courtney opened the door, and saw there were 3 bathroom stalls. She took big steps to the first stall she saw, (the third one) got inside, closed the door, and locked it. In the parking lot, Heather was waiting for Courtney in the car...
Heather: I believe Courtney had made it.
Cut to a shot of the three stalls in the women's room. Under the third stall, Courtney's long white socks and red sneakers (feet) were shown. Back in the car, Heather was checking to see how much time she waited for her friend...
Heather: It's been 7 minutes already. I'm hoping she doesn't stay there for too long.
In the bathroom, at the 10-minute mark, a flush was heard from the third stall. The door opened, and Courtney walked out with a small smile...
Courtney: (sighs) That was close.
She went to where the sinks where, and washed her hands with soap and water, then used an hand dryer to dry her hands off. Then she quietly walked out of the bathroom.
Courtney: Now I can buy something.
She went back to the front of the store, and on the candy shelf, she grabbed the first candy bar she saw. Courtney then said to the cashier, who noticed her, 'I would like to buy this candy bar, please.' She took the dollar out, and paid for the candy bar. In the car, Heather was wondering what was happening...
Heather: I should probably go check if Courtney's okay.
Just then, Heather saw Courtney come out of the store, and opened the right front door, sat down, then put the candy bar on the side.
Heather: Feel better?
Courtney: Oh, much better. Let's get going, Heather.
Heather look to her right, and saw her friend buckling her seatbelt, and smiling. Courtney was glad she made it to the bathroom in time. She thought that, if she had decided to wait, and the nearest hotel was completely full, they would have to go back onto the freeway. Then she might have messed up her overalls. Heather then drove off to the nearest hotel, where she and Courtney easily got a hotel room to stay before the night, before they set off the next day.
Flashback ends.
Heather laughs, and says, 'It could have been worse if we didn't stop.'
Courtney rolls her eyes, and said, 'Okay, Heather, you Were right to stop there.'
Heather: Well, it's been good talking to you, Courtney. See you later.
Courtney: (waves her hand) Goodbye, Heather.
Heather's screen went off, and then Courtney thought of something. Even though her friend was never gonna let her forget it, she had to chuckle at how well Heather remembered that night.
