As Avis crawls into the van she notes many familiar objects. Movie projectors, movie reels, Aspen's tonfa, among other familiar miscellaneous objects. Nothing registered as alive or thinking to Avis except for herself and the people she could see outside the van.
There wasn't much room in the van with the miscellany packed into the back, so Avis had to climb into the drivers seat to make space for Star.
Outside the van, Star notices that cars are starting to line up behind the van and him. It seems a van parked in the middle of the road around dinner time was a slight obstruction.
