Mark's toothache fiasco

  1. Mark woke up with a painful toothache and called his dentist.
  2. The dentist was able to squeeze Mark into his schedule, but only if he were on time. 
  3. As Mark rushed out of his house, he realized he forgot his electronic car key.
  4. Rushing back to his house, he fell and dropped his house keys. 
  5. A crow snatched the keys and when Mark swiped at it, he fell into a mud puddle.
  6. Mark was now locked out of his house and his car.
  7. He tried climbing a ladder to get into a window, but he fell into thorny bushes.
  8. Fortunately, his neighbor Tom arrived and offered him a ride to the dentist.
