A flat tire had left her 138 in the middle of nowhere for hours. “The 139 are that I will have to spend the night in the bleak wilderness,” she thought to herself. Just as she was worried sick about her situation, a car 140 and pulled up in front of her. Out of the car 141 named Joe. “Anything I can do for you, ma’am?” Joe asked earnestly. 142 finding out Mrs. Rich’s predicament, Joe offered her the much-needed help. He even considerately suggested she 143inside her car to ward off the chill while he changed the tire for her. Afterwards, instead of asking for a 144 sum of money as a reward, Joe asked Mrs. Rich to pass on the good will and help someone else in need. Mrs. Rich did so by leaving a huge tip that was probably 145 her meal to a pregnant waitress in a shabby café in the hope of helping her cope with financial difficulties.
