      Muddied Water:

      I'm meeting with friends (the Tots) somewhere.
      I arrive first, at a Wal-Mart like store. I'm searching for a bathroom.
      I see AG hugging somebody who isn't her boyfriend, while MD (the boyfriend) is returning from a nearby isle.
      The store then changes into something more like a Toys-R-Us.
      ...
      I'm in a dark and cramped escape-room type area. There are some dark purple plants covering the walls.
      There are some pots holding the plants, and the pots are filled with dirty looking water.
      ...
      I'm holding a glass of water, and it has the 'dirty' property from the escape room scene.
      I'm standing in a hallway at HM's house that isn't normally there.
      I accidently spill the water, and my Dad starts to criticize me before I have a chance to explain it wasn't my fault. Stressful moment.
      My Dad is in a full suit, and is explaining something work-related to HM.

      Learning to Drive:

      It's night and I'm leaving a game night at JM's (Tots) house.
      I'm with EP from highschool combination rackets. Her dad is coming to pick us up.
      The car is a beat up old Expedition. We sit in the back.
      ...
      We get to EP's home and it is a small condo/apartment. It's dirty as well.
      I see a large smartwatch adhered to the wall, meant to act as a regular wall-clock.
      There is a bag of fast food on the ground. It might have been Firehouse Subs.
      ...
      Later I'm downtown somewhere that reminds me of Las Vegas. I'm near a parking structure stairwell.
      My girlfriend's Dad is supposed to meet us at a restaurant soon.
      There is some sort of event related to car sustainability going on.
      ...
      I'm at my high-school parking lot.
      I've just bought a brand new car, but my Dad is in the driver's seat.
      I'm very annoyed that he is trying to drive it before I do, so I ask him to give up the spot to me.
      He does, but when I get in, I notice that he has only partially moved out of it.
      He is sitting in the passenger seat, but his left leg is still under the wheel.
      I'm struggling to fit in the driver's seat, and my Dad is struggling to fit in the passenger seat.
