Joe finally made his escape. He had meticulously planned every detail, from digging a tunnel under his cell to bribing a guard for the key to the main gate. As he emerged into the cool night air, Joe felt a rush of exhilaration knowing he was finally free.
But his freedom was short-lived. As Joe ran through the streets, he realized he had no idea what to do next. He had been behind bars for so long that the world outside seemed like a foreign place. Desperate for guidance, Joe spotted a police officer and approached him.
"Excuse me, officer," Joe said, trying to sound casual. "Can you tell me how to get to the nearest bus station?"
The officer eyed Joe suspiciously. "And why would a freshly escaped convict like yourself need to catch a bus?"
Caught off guard, Joe panicked. "Oh, I'm not a convict! I'm... I'm a method actor researching for a role!"
The officer raised an eyebrow. "Really? And what role requires you to escape from prison?"
Joe stuttered, scrambling for an answer. "Um, it's, uh, a... a comedy! Yes, a comedy about a clumsy convict who accidentally escapes."
The officer chuckled. "Well, in that case, good luck with your research. The bus station is just down the street."
With a sense of relief, Joe thanked the officer and hurried away, vowing to lay low and stay out of trouble. And as he boarded the bus to freedom, he couldn't help but chuckle at the absurdity of his situation. Who knew escaping from prison could be so comedic?
