House painters have to stop working when a rain storm arrives. While they are packing up their supplies, a motorcycle with 2 riders goes by at very high speed. Not long after a semi truck drives by. A few miles down the road the painters see the truck at the side of the road, the driver is flagging them down. The motorcycle they had seen earlier is lying on the road, but no sign of the riders. They look around, then see them lying on the road, twisted like rag dolls, dead.
